The National Intramural-Recreational Sports Association (NIRSA) has recognized Skidmore College's McCaffery-Wagman Tennis and Wellness Center as part of its 2026 Outstanding Sports Facilities (OSF) Awards.
Fusing athletics, recreation, fitness, mental health, educational resources and more in one space, the McCaffery-Wagman Tennis and Wellness Center marks a pivotal moment for Skidmore College as it deepens its commitment to the holistic student experience. It is a building we are proud to have designed.
Built alongside Skidmore’s existing Williamson Sports Center, the building brings to life a vision for an athletics and recreation quad first shaped through our earlier master planning work with the college.
The Tennis and Wellness Center is inherently multi-dimensional, offering numerous resources to the campus community, including:
- An NCAA tennis complex featuring eight lighted outdoor tennis courts and four indoor courts that provide key spaces for Skidmore’s nationally ranked men’s and women’s tennis teams to train and compete.
- A two-story fitness and recreation space with leading-edge cardio and weight training areas along with dedicated spaces for diverse wellness programming, including yoga, meditation, spring classes and martial arts.
The center unites Skidmore’s Health Services, Counseling Center and Department of Health Promotion to offer students an integrated care model to support their health and well-being. Previously, these departments were located in different locations across campus.
