I don't think I've been in more than three or four 3A gyms, but Prosper's is pretty nice.

Sinton has 2 gyms. A "new" one & the "old" one. Both are okay, I guess. :thinking:

Gatesville and Hillsboro have great gyms. I know Gatesville has stadium seating in it and if memory serves me correct Hillsboro has that too.

Was up in Nevada last week and Community's gym is very nice and looked to be very new. Ranchview also has a great gym as well, but that's to be expected with how new the school is.

This is probably being a bit technical, but Roosevelt plays several home games down at Ellis Davis Fieldhouse. (The big building behind the South Endzone at Kincaide Stadium that's all part of the Jesse Owens Athletic Complex.) If you've never been to Ellis Davis and you're a basketball fan you should go. That's a great facility to play basketball in. They have 4 cameras at every game down there and they have the scoreboard above the court with the screens on each side to show replays and crowd shots.

My hometown of Fort Stockton has a new "SEC", Special Events Center, that is pretty nice, It has 2 levels of courts. It has 2 full size practice courts and 1 game court that is sunk in and has theater seating. It is pretty sharp and has been featured on The High School Extra.

Liberty Eylau's Rader Dome - about two years new. Gorgeous, roomy, state-of-the art. Love it.

Out of all the 3A gyms i've been to these are the ones i think are the best.

1. Madisonville
2. Silsbee
3. Fairfield
4. Cameron
5. Gatesville

Maybe when our new gym is finished in Aug we might make the list next year :D

I always liked playing in Cameron simply because ya'll had the springy floors and the lowered goals.

The nicest 3A gym I've ever seen would be a tie between Fairfield and Madisonville.

Ingleside has a nice gym that is fairly new with pleanty of parking available. Mr. McGee (spelling) does a great job of announcing the games there and he is great at singing the national anthem.

Yes, Cuero has 3 Gyms now lol. And from what I heard is that the newest one (just opened this school year) is rather small for being "one of better ones in the area".

at the risk of being a homer, I think Royse City has the best gym that I've seen anywhere
stadium seating that holds 2500
4 sided scoreboard that hangs over center court
glass wall at one end of the court
and it's brand new

Wills point is pretty good. Every seat has a back and you have windows along the baseline so you can eat and watch the game.

Crandall's new gym is pretty nice to.


Worst gym = mabank, nothing like their 15 minute long national anthem

our gym isn't that great, but our indoor practice facility/weightroom are among the best in the class, i would wager.

Bellville just opened up a new gym this year, and the old one is still in good shape. It is good to have two.
