Athletics and Recreation West Field House

When attending a sporting event at University Of California Santa Cruz you must prepare for a long walk to the 'West Field House'The Games usually held here are Men's & Women's Volleyball and some basketball.For those with walking problems or perhaps are confined to a wheelchair or 'scooter' call during the week and speak with a Athletic Director letting them know of your needs.There is zero parking near the gym. Most parking is taken my student housing however on weekends there seems to be plenty of parking.*NOTE: For sporting events it's best to enter on the western side of the campus, accessible thru Bay Ave or Western Drive, BOTH located off of the Main Road, Mission St (AKA Hwy 1 North).As you approach the school you will see a guard shack about 100 feet from a three way stop.Turn into the school. Drive past the guard shack and at First stop sign (3way) turn Right.It's best to make an immediate left into the Parking Lot, but you can try to follow the road up and park in three other smaller parking lots located in or near student housing (not recommended).From the first parking lot mentioned earleir, Get a parking pass via machine or APP.Walk to center walkway and it is a 300+ foot walk uphill and upstairs (paved) to the Gym.You will run into a red building and can take the elevator up or use the steps to the right. Once you reach the Apex you will see the gym. Seating is very limited. Most students give way to the Adults those who need it. Very polite group of young adults there.If it's is your first time there, I bHope it helps.You fist time there you will drive around trying to find closer parking but it's usually all for not.Security does patrol especially during school hours.Good luck!

Nice facility
