Jones-Hill House, Sports training facility at University of Maryland, US.
Jones-Hill House is a football training complex at the University of Maryland with indoor practice space, strength and conditioning areas, and sports medicine facilities. The facility also houses locker rooms, position meeting areas, a cafeteria, and administrative offices for the program.
The building opened in 1955 as Cole Field House and served the university as a multipurpose sports venue for decades. A major renovation in 2015 modernized the facility before it received its current name in 2021 to honor the athletes who broke barriers.
The building honors Billy Jones and Darryl Hill, who broke barriers in the university's basketball and football programs during the 1950s. Their names represent a place where athletics and history meet.
The facility is located on the University of Maryland campus and is easily accessible by main campus roads with visitor parking nearby. The building is most active during training sessions, and visitors should be aware that many areas are restricted to authorized personnel only.
An underground tunnel connects this building directly to the adjacent stadium, allowing athletes and staff to move between the two without going outdoors. The passage features displays showing the university's athletic accomplishments over the years.
