The Joe Craft Center, opened in January 2007, is a basketball practice facility and athletics office building attached to Memorial Coliseum on the "Avenue of Champions" at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky. The 102,000 ft² (9,480 m²) structure contains separate practice courts for the men's and women's basketball programs; support spaces, including coach offices, will be available. The project also includes a ticket office, athletic administration offices and the renovation of 17,500 ft² (1,630 m²) of space in Memorial Coliseum to support requirements from the volleyball, gymnastics and other sports teams.
Construction began in August 2005 on the north side of the Coliseum. The $30 million structure was completed on January 11, 2007. As a result, Memorial Coliseum has more ample space for volleyball and gymnastics practice and games.
