About
In the fall of 2012, Thomas University opened its Magnolia Campus, which is located at the corner of Pinetree Boulevard and Magnolia Street in Thomasville, Ga., about one mile from the Main Campus. Magnolia Campus contains the athletic department's offices, new Student Life Center, which is home to TU's athletic training room and state-of-the-art fitness center and weight room, and newly renovated gymnasium.  To access a complete layout of the Magnolia Campus facilities, click here (PDF).

Welcome Lobby




When you arrive at the Thomas University Athletic Department, you will be greeted by our staff with open arms. Once inside the building, visitors will see our Champions Wall that features past conference championships, national tournament qualifiers, individual recognitions, coach of the year plaques, retired jerseys, national championship trophies, and an assortment of other awards. Guests to the athletic department can relax in our comfy seating area and read a magazine or watch programming on our big screen television.






Staff Offices

    

The athletic department offices are housed within the Chappele buliding. This area of the building features ample space for each coaching staff, administrator, and our sports information department.  The office entrance area houses a conference wall that features placards of all Sun Conference members and a sitting area highlighted by the 2004 NAIA Softball National Championship trophy and rings.


Magnolia Conference Room




Just a few steps past the entrance lobby sits the Magnolia Conference Room.  There, the TU Athletic Department holds staff meetings, team meetings, pre-game meals, hosts recruits, watches training videos, and uses as a common work place for staff.  Teams hold their film sessions, media day meetings, post-game interviews, and other activities in this room on a daily basis.  The Magnolia Conference Room features a large table top surface with seating room for groups ranging from two to 25 plus.  The room also features a big screen television for film sessions, news, and training videos.





Athletic Training Room



The athletic training room (ATR) is designed to allow TU's athletic training staff to prevent injuries, evaluate student-athletes who may have suffered an injury, and offer aid with general questions about sports medicine, injury prevention, health, and fitness. The ATR is equipped with observation tables, first aid supplies, rehabilitation equipment, and a cold whirlpool room. The training room serves as a center for student-athletes who have suffered an injury that may require rehabilitation to a muscle group. The ATR enables athletic trainers to process information to follow-up with student-athletes who suffer an injury to ensure they have recovered completely in the future. The Athletic Training Room is open Monday-Thursday 9:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. and Friday 9:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.




Fitness Center/Weight Room




Whether you are looking to add inches to your biceps, drop inches from your weight line, or get in a daily healthy fitness routine, the Thomas University Fitness Center and Weight Room are open to all TU students, staff, and faculty during set hours. The fitness center and weight room equipment includes a full range of free weights, supported weights, lifting stations, strength machines, elliptical trainers, treadmills, and bicycles both recumbent and up right.  All visitors must present their Thomas University ID upon entry and use a green towel to clean and wipe down the equipment when use is completed.  A complete list of all of the fitness center and weight room equipment can be accessed by clicking here (PDF).




TU Gymnasium



While a patron at TU athletic events, fans have a close-to-the-court presence that makes them feel apart of the game.  Spectators can enjoy refreshments from the concession stands, pick up Thomas University athletics merchandise, or interact with halftime contests.  The newly renovated gymnasium features a classic wooden finish and ample seating for home competitions.  Our facility includes five locker rooms, two for our Night Hawks and Lady Night Hawks, two for visiting opponents, and one for referees and game officials. Our men's and women's basketball games are broadcasted live via BlueFrame and feature live statistics for every competition via PrestoStats.  Just a short drive from main campus and the dorms, students have an electric atmosphere to show up and cheer on their classmates.
