Description

Lejeune Hall provides the U.S. Naval Academy with one of the world’s finest facilities for all competitive swimming, diving, and water polo events in intercollegiate, U.S. Swimming and Diving, and Olympic categories, and can accommodate 1,000 spectators in comfortable armchair seats and another 500 spectators in portable bleachers on the pool deck. Built in 1982 for $13.5 million, the complex also houses a total weight training facility, locker rooms, showers, three saunas, a large classroom, and a fully-equipped first aid/training room.

In addition to serving as the home facility for the U.S. Naval Academy swimming and water polo teams, Lejeune Hall also has been the host site for many other prominent aquatic competitions over its quarter-century history, and has seen Olympians, world champions, and world record holders take to its waters.
