Athletic Facilities

Wilmington College is home to several state-of-the-art athletic facilities that serve the College’s many sport teams and organizations. Many of our sports-, health-, and equine-focused academic programs use these facilities as alternate classrooms for experiential learning.

The Center for Sport Sciences serves as the hub for team sports, academic learning and professional medical use. This 41,000-square-foot facility represents a unique blend of academic, athletic, recreational and commercial use. The Center is home to four medical offices, allowing our athletic-training students, occupational therapy and pre-med students to garner clinical experience without having to leave campus.
