New photos of construction of clubhouse at Illinois Field

After work today, I trekked on over to Illinois Field to see how construction was going on the improvements on the Illinois players’ clubhouse.  I took some photos while I was there too.

The UI baseball program has come out with a press release on the construction.  Here are some of pertinent details:

  • it will cost $800,000 paid for by a private gift (whoever you are, the players thank you, I’m sure)
  • the renovations will add 30% more space to the current facility
  • new features include wooden lockers, a meeting area, stations for film work and flat panel monitors for film review and instruction

They have a ways to go but they plan to be ready by the 2011 season.

Here are some more photos:
