Cavaliers Break Ground on State-of-the-Art Training Facility
A new era is unfolding for the Cleveland Cavaliers. On Monday, the team held a groundbreaking ceremony for its downtown training facility, scheduled to open in 2027. The Cleveland Clinic Global Peak Performance Center will be a game-changer for the team, providing a 210,000-square-foot space equipped with cutting-edge technology and amenities.
A Commitment to Player Development
Donovan Mitchell, the team’s All-Star guard, was on hand to kick off construction alongside Mayor Justin Bibb and other dignitaries. For Mitchell, the new facility represents a significant investment in the team’s players. “This shows how serious Cleveland is about their sports and how much they care about our bodies,” he said. The five-time All-Star believes the center will have a lasting impact on the longevity of their careers.
A New Chapter for the Cavs
The Cavaliers have been training in Independence, Ohio, since 2007. The move downtown will bring them closer to their home floor, Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. The team’s partnership with the Cleveland Clinic has also been extended for 25 years, further solidifying their commitment to player development.
A Hub for Athletes of All Levels
The Cleveland Clinic Global Peak Performance Center won’t just be for the Cavaliers. The public will also have access to the facility, which will offer high-tech testing and training equipment, as well as other amenities. This will make it an attractive destination for athletes of varying skill levels looking to improve their performance.
A Bright Future Ahead
As the Cavaliers prepare to open the season on October 23 in Toronto, the groundbreaking ceremony marks an exciting new chapter for the team. With their new training facility on the horizon, the Cavs are poised for success both on and off the court.
