UCLA began construction on the Spieker Aquatics Center in July 2008. PCL Construction has been hired to complete the project for opening in the fall of 2009. The Spieker Aquatics Center will be the new home for the UCLA varsity men's and women's water polo, swimming and diving teams, and aquatic club sport teams.
This state-of-the-art facility will include a 52-meter by 25-yard all-deep water pool with a dividing bulkhead, allowing competitions to take place at varying distances (meters versus yards). The aquatics center will feature three, five, seven and a half, and 10-meter platforms on a diving tower as well as one and three-meter spring boards.
The Spieker Aquatics Center will include locker rooms for both men's and women's teams in addition to permanent seating for spectators. The east side of the venue will feature a "Champions Wall" which will include the accomplishments of UCLA's past and present aquatics teams in addition to a LED scoreboard.
