Rex Pyles Arena Now Open To Public

Rex Pyles Arena at the Battlers Knob (former Alderson Broaddus University) is now open to public in limited capacity, with more activities and events planned this summer and fall.

Starting Tuesday, June 25, there will be open gym from 7-9 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays where children and adults can attend and use the main basketball floor for workouts. Balls, hula hoops, and jump ropes will be provided. Children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult.

On Wednesdays and Sundays, WV Elite Basketball Academy will hold group sessions for children in grades five through 12 from 7 to 8 p.m.

Coming soon, there will be an official announcement about tumbling and cheer academy that will be moving its operations to Rex Pyles Arena, as well as day basketball camps throughout the rest of the summer.

Auxiliary gym and main floor will be available for birthday parties starting mid to late July.

The owners are also hoping to have weight room operational before the end of the summer, while the pool will still take some time to reopen, as it requires more work to be done.
