Complexe sportif et récréatif
Sports facilities and playing fields have always been an important part of the Loyola Campus. The first phase began in 2003 to develop both the outdoor and indoor Loyola Campus recreation and athletics facilities. Artificial surfaces were installed to create two new outdoor playing fields for football, soccer, rugby, and recreational activities. Permanent lighting was installed to permit evening practices and games, and temporary stands were erected to replace badly deteriorating stadium seating. The Ed Meagher Arena lockers and rink refrigeration system were renovated in 2014. Fundraising is underway to extend and renovate other parts of the ageing 1967 Sports Complex. The plans include:
- a new weight room and conditioning room facilities
- an athletic therapy centre
- academic and administrative support spaces
- recreational and varsity locker room space
- stadium construction to include permanent seating for 5,000
