USA Gymnastics Selects Noblesville as Training & Wellness Center Site

USA Gymnastics has selected the Innovation Mile in Noblesville, Indiana, as the location for its proposed Training & Wellness Center and new office headquarters.

The proposed facility will host USA Gymnastics National Team camps, educational workshops, community outreach events and competitions throughout the year in all disciplines, including artistic, rhythmic, trampoline and tumbling, acrobatic, parkour and gymnastics for all.

“We are excited to announce Noblesville as the future site of the Training & Wellness Center,” said USA Gymnastics President and CEO Li Li Leung. “The city is an incredibly enthusiastic and supportive partner as we look to develop a facility that is the heart and hub for the sport of gymnastics in this country. We look forward to working with the city of Noblesville, the greater Indianapolis sports community and supporters of the sport nationwide to make our vision for this facility a reality.”

It won’t be too far of a move for USA Gymnastics, as the NGB’s current headquarters are located 20 miles from Noblesville in Indianapolis. USA Gymnastics will launch a fundraising campaign to support the construction and operation of the TWC.

“The USA Gymnastics athlete community has been very excited about the prospect of a permanent training center,” said Alex Renkert, chair of USAG’s Athletes’ Council. “Finally having a home for gymnastics, where athletes from every discipline can train, connect and thrive under one roof, is incredibly special.”

The Training and Wellness Center also will be a large part of the Indiana Sports Corp’s 2050 Vision to make Indiana “the women’s sports capital of the world.” The USA Gymnastics women’s artistic team has won the past seven World Championship titles and is the reigning Olympic team champion.

“Noblesville is thrilled to welcome USA Gymnastics’ new HQ to Innovation Mile, furthering our investment in sports, research, development and innovation,” said Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen. “USAG’s investment in our community, athletes nationwide and the future of the sport speaks to the commitment to excellence and heart of their team.”

Innovation Mile is a nearly 600–acre district. Opening last month, The Arena at Innovation Mile is a 4,000 capacity, multisport venue. It is home to the Noblesville Boom, the NBA G League Affiliate of the Indiana Pacers, and will host select USA Gymnastics competitions.

“Seeing USA Gymnastics take the next step to bring a Training and Wellness Center to life, practically in my backyard, is amazing,” said Jaycie Phelps, a 1996 Olympic gold medalist and USA Gymnastics Hall of Famer who owns and operates the Jaycie Phelps Athletic Center in her nearby hometown of Greenfield. “Having a state-of-the-art facility will be a benefit to everyone who has the opportunity to come here for a camp or clinic, including athletes and coaches. I am excited about what this will do for the sport of gymnastics as a whole, especially here in Indiana.”
