Malley Fitness Center

The Pat Malley Fitness and Recreation Center is at Santa Clara University. Constructed and dedicated October 8, 1999, the center is the primary sports and fitness center for the general population at Santa Clara University.

Built at a cost of $8.8 million, the 44,000-square-foot (4,100 m2) facility is named for long-time SCU football coach Pat Malley and includes three basketball/volleyball courts, a weight room, two locker rooms, a 2,100-square-foot (200 m2) multipurpose room, a lounge space, and offices for recreation and wellness programs. Weight and fitness facilities are available for university athletics in the Leavey Center, so Malley is open to the campus community for recreational use.

SCU alumni, including many of Malley's former football players, were involved in the financing, planning, and construction of the facility, which includes approximately $400,000 in exercise equipment.

During its first month of operation, daily attendance of SCU students, staff, faculty, and alumni at the fitness center averaged about 1,200. The structure is situated next to the Leavey Center on the east side of the SCU campus was designed by Cannon architects of Los Angeles.

The 9,500-square-foot (880 m2) weight room is named the Filizetti-McPherson Weight Room, after John Filizetti and Bill McPherson. The lobby area was donated by Brent Jones and his wife Dana.

In November 2017, SCU opened an outdoor fitness area across from the Malley Fitness Center. [1]
