Freitas Ice Forum converted into volleyball facility

UConn volleyball has its a new home for the upcoming fall season.

On May 2, the school announced that Freitas Ice Forum — former home of UConn’s ice hockey teams — would be transformed into a new facility for UConn’s volleyball team. Prior to renovation, the volleyball team had used Harry A. Gampel Pavilion since 1993 — with the exception of the 2017 season, when it moved into Guyer Gym due to roof renovations in Gampel.

The new facility — which currently does not have a name — cost $2.5 million in gift-funded money.

Freitas Ice Forum has been transformed into a four-court volleyball facility that will be used for practice and game action beginning this fall.
