The University of Iowa is seeking approval from the Iowa Board of Regents to construct a new field hockey operations building adjacent to Grant Field and to proceed with planning renovations to Carver-Hawkeye Arena.

Designed to better support student-athletes and bring team activities together in one building specifically for their needs, the field hockey operations building project carries an estimated budget of $8.65 million and will be funded entirely through donor support. 

If approved, construction is anticipated to begin this summer, with completion targeted for summer 2027. The proposed modernization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena would include upgrades to accessibility, fan comfort, and the game-day atmosphere.
