Perry Field House
The $8.7 million PFH has two large wings: the turf room that is a 100 x 60 yard field covered with synthetic turf, and the track room which is a 200-meter, six running/eight sprint lane track encircling four courts for basketball, volleyball, or tennis. These large rooms are connected by a center section that contains PFH administrative and Intramurals/Sport Clubs offices, shower/locker rooms, a meeting room, foyer, and an information desk. The PFH also houses a fully equipped sports care center (training room), including a whirlpool. The entire facility is handicap accessible. It is principally financed by fees from currently registered students.
The PFH offers recreational activity ranging from structured physical education classes, intercollegiate athletics, intramural games, sport clubs, and special events to informal "pick-up" basketball, volleyball, tennis, flag football, soccer, running, jogging, and walking.
The PFH is utilized for scheduled activity by physical education classes in the morning and early afternoon, intercollegiate athletics in the late afternoon, and intramurals and sport clubs in the evening. These activities may also be scheduled on some weekends.
Registered students and other members/guests may take advantage of the PFH facilities when they are not being used for scheduled activities, Monday through Friday from 7 - 8 am and Monday through Friday from Noon to 1 pm depending on physical education class schedules. For other available times, contact the PFH at 372-9900. Students are automatically eligible to use the facility through payment of the University general fee (part-time students pay an extra proportional fee). Faculty/staff, alumni, and BGSU Presidents Club members may purchase a Recreational Sports membership or a guest pass for $5 per visit. All users are required to show a valid I.D. Children 7 years and under are not permitted to use the PFH.
Lockers for daily use only are located in the shower rooms. Users bring their own locks and towels. No long-term storage of personal belongings is available. A $5 fine will be charged for removal of a lock or personal belongings from a locker.
