The architecture of the new K-State basketball training facility, completed in the fall of 2012, combines modern glass with the limestone exterior featured on buildings all across the K-State campus.
A large interactive video screen, on which guests can experience K-State basketball through such things as video tours, basketball history quizzes, and highlights of the program's greatest moments and players, greets visitors to the offices in the facility in the Berney Family Reception Center.

The K-State basketball training facility, which sits on the east side of Bramlage Coliseum, was completed in the fall of 2012 at a cost of $18 million, which was all privately funded, and contains 50,000 square feet split between two practice courts, locker rooms, lounges, offices, film room, weight room, atrium lobby, and a sports medicine center with a state-of-the-art hydrotherapy facility.
Custom-built wooden lockers, illuminated nameplates, and a replica jump circle round out the championship-worthy men's locker room, adjacent to which is a lounge area with several oversized leather chairs and flat-screen TVs, and a break room.
Banners featuring the accomplishments, traditions and people of K-State basketball line the walls and rafters of both practice courts.
Both the men's and women's basketball teams benefit by getting their own practice courts and avoiding trying to work around each other's practice schedules while sharing Bramlage Coliseum previously for practices.
The 1,500 square foot John Vanier Strength and Performance Center contains weights and strength-and-conditioning equipment designed specifically for basketball players.

The new, state-of-the-art basketball facility, in addition to more greatly enabling basketball players and other athletes to achieve excellence through their use of its amenities, will also have a very positive effect on recruiting.
