Guglielmino Athletics Complex

The University of Notre Dame has enjoyed the sparkling Guglielmino Athletics Complex, affectionately referred to as "The Gug" (pronounced Goog), since 2005.

The Gug houses the football practice-week locker rooms, coaches’ offices and meeting rooms in addition to enhanced sports medicine, strength and conditioning and weight room equipment for all Notre Dame student-athletes.

Underwritten with a gift from the late Don F. Guglielmino and his wife Flora, the Gug provides the Irish football team with a central location for post-practice and pre-practice routines as well as daily positional meetings. Before the Gug opened, the Irish football facilities were spread between Notre Dame Stadium, the Joyce Center and the Loftus Sports Center.

The first floor of the 96,000-square-foot complex features the 25,000-square-foot Haggar Fitness Center

With the latest state-of-the-art equipment that all student-athletes can use on a daily basis. The 8,300-square-foot Loftus Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Center services all Notre Dame student-athletes and also houses the athletic training staff. Also on the first floor are the Romano Family Locker Room, Isban Auditorium, the Allen Equipment Room and Hickey Coaches’ Locker Room.

The second floor houses the Smith Family Office Suites.
