The Rolfs Sports Recreation Center

Building Description

The Irish swimming and diving teams compete in the state-of-the-art Rolfs Aquatic Center. After four years of varsity intercollegiate swimming competition in the Rockne Memorial Pool, the Notre Dame women's swimming and diving program entered a new era in 1985, as they moved to the $4.5-million natatorium located in the Joyce Center.

History

Donated by brothers Thomas and Robert Rolfs of West Bend, Wis., the Rolfs Aquatic Center provides Notre Dame with a modern, innovative facility on par with any other in the country. Ellerbe Architects and Engineers of Bloomington, Minn., the architects used in the planning of the Joyce Center, also were commissioned to design the 45,000-square-foot facility which houses a 50-meter Olympic pool (25 yards in width), spectator seating for 400 and support facilities.
