Description
The Georgia State Sports Arena consists of four stories. The gymnasium floor is on the third level and is the home court for men and womens basketball and womens volleyball. Basketball seating is available on the third and fourth floors. Locker rooms are located on the second floor. The Georgia State University athletics department is located on the first floor of the building. Also in the building is a Student-Athlete Learning Lab.
The main court (named the Charles "Lefty" Driesell Court for the former Panthers mens basketball coach) has a four sided scoreboard hanging from the ceiling as well as a "JumboTron" style video signage board on the south end wall.
In October 2011, plans for significant upgrades to the GSU Sports Arena were released in the 2011-12 Annual Report. These upgrades include turning the court 90 degrees, adding seating to a total of 5,000, installing luxury box suites, and new video signage boards. The new configuration would include bowl style seating, stretching around the entire court.
