OUR CAMPUS & ATHLETICS FACILITIES

Westminster is situated on 180 acres in northwest Atlanta’s Buckhead community. Anchored by a historic quad of original buildings, Westminster’s campus offers state-of-the-art spaces for both academics and athletics. All of the School’s athletics facilities are located on-site, including cross-country trails, tennis courts, squash courts, an Olympic-size pool and diving well, and courts and fields for both practice and competition. Turner Gymnasium also has a fully equipped fitness room, a training room, and a climbing wall; adjacent to Turner Gymnasium are dedicated stadiums for baseball and softball. The newly renovated Alfred E. Thompson Stadium—home to Wildcat football, soccer, track and field, lacrosse, and more—has new home-team stands, halftime locker rooms for home and visiting teams, an athletic training room, and a press box large enough to accommodate coaches, commentators, and the School’s award-winning student broadcast team, WCAT. A welcoming community plaza connects the athletics complex to the rest of Westminster’s campus.
