Named "The Best Place in America to Watch College Basketball" by Sports Illustrated in 1997, Texas Hall is the home to UTA's men's and women's basketball and volleyball teams. Possibly the most unique setting for intercollegiate events in the nation, the Mavericks¹ home court seats 4,200 and allows fans two areas of seating that allow for two radically different ways to watch the game. One side of the court gives the UTA faithful the opportunity to sit in plush, theater-style seating while watching the action on the elevated floor. This means that fans will never have to yell, "Down in front!" since the action is taking place a few feet higher then them. Imagine rock concert meets run-n-gun offense. The other side of the court is for the fan who wants to be close up to the event. With seats just a few feet from the court, fans in the bleacher area are right on top of the action. Texas Hall is also equipped with one of the best sound and lighting systems around, contributing to an atmosphere that makes "Ball at the Hall" one of the most exciting and unique experiences for fans, student-athletes, coaches and everyone else involved.

For years, UT Arlington enjoyed playing on one of the most well-manicured baseball surfaces in the country. Now, as the Mavericks enjoy their 37th season in the same location, the team and its fans are reaping the benefits of a major renovation to the stadium.
Prior to the start of the 2003 season, renovations to the stadium were completed featuring a brand new grand entranceway and added seating to boost the capacity to 1,600.
The facility received a new state-of-the-art lighting system, which allows the Mavericks the ability to play night baseball.
The facility was re-named Clay Gould Ballpark on April 26, 2003, after the former UT Arlington standout player and coach. The name change was at the suggestion of Dr. Allan Saxe, an associate professor of political science at UT Arlington, whom the ballpark was previously named after.
In front of a crowd of nearly 1,000 people, the name change officially took place and Gould's widow, Julie, and daughter, Logan, unveiled the memorial of Clay Gould on the outside wall of the main entranceway.
In 2009 a Daktronics ProStar® LED Display video board was installed and the center section of the grandstands also received an upgrade with approximately 345 new seats added.
Other additions to the stadium took place in 1999, when a three-foot high brick wall - that spans from dugout to dugout - was added, along with a new net backstop. Projects for the 2010 season include adding a "brag board" next to the scoreboard/video board and adding a retired number to the outfield fence.
The stadium was named for Saxe, after his overwhelming generosity made it possible for UT Arlington to continue its development of one of the finest facilities in the NCAA.
The stadium was originally opened in 1974 as the Mavericks hosted TCU in what became the UT Arlington debut of head coach Butch McBroom.
In 36 seasons, the Mavericks have established Clay Gould Ballpark as one of the toughest places for a visiting team in the country. Since 1974, the Mavericks have averaged 20 wins per season at home. In all, UT Arlington has won 703 games, while losing just 395 for a .640 home field winning percentage.
In 1986, the field was completely renovated. The entire field was sprigged with a fine natural turf (Hybrid Bermuda Tiff 419). A hydraulic powered irrigation system was installed while the surface was leveled and a new infield dirt mixture was applied along with the addition of a warning track surrounding the field.
UT Arlington's coaching staff serves as the head groundskeepers. With the help of the Maverick baseball players, Clay Gould Ballpark is now considered one of the finest playing surfaces in the Southwest. Besides UT Arlington baseball, the diamond has played host to the Texas State Junior College Tournament, the state American Amateur Baseball Congress Connie Mack and American Legion Tournaments and numerous high school playoff games. It also served as the venue for Major League tryout camps.
Nolan Ryan, Alex Rodriguez, Roger Clemens and Ozzie Smith have made appearances at the Ballpark for individual workouts, commercials, camps and clinics.
Clay Gould Ballpark also includes three remodeled astro-turfed batting cages and a 10-foot padded wall.
The field has dimensions of 330 feet down the lines, 380 feet into the power alleys and 400 feet to straight away center field.

Next door to Allan Saxe Stadium is Allan Saxe Field, home to Maverick softball. Like its neighboring facility, the softball field is named in honor of Dr. Allan Saxe, and was completely renovated in 1993. With bleacher seating for over 250 fans, Allan Saxe Field offers fans the opportunity to watch the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex¹s lone NCAA Division I softball team up close to the action in an intimate setting.
The facility features a press box with seating for media and sports information personnel, a sound system for music and public address announcements, a concession stand and restroom facilities.
On the field, players from each team enjoy spacious, covered dugouts and an extremely well-manicured field. Batting cages and twin-mound bullpens give players the opportunity stay on top of their games. Lights make night games possible and a 10-inning scoreboard sits beyond the outfield fence, which stands 10 feet high.

The UTA Tennis Center, home of the UTA men's and women's tennis teams, is among the best tennis facilities in the Southwest region.
UTA's Tennis Center The center, which received an award from the United States Tennis Association as one of the top facilities in Texas in 1986, was completely remodeled in 1995, making it even better than before. Coaches, players and spectators alike all enjoy the facility.
The UTA Tennis Center has 12 hard courts, with spectator seating for eight of the courts. Lights give participants the option of playing at any time.
When athletes need to take a break or adjust their equipment, they can head to the center's pro shop. Besides stringing machines, Head Coach Christian Wassmer's, Assistant Coach Diego Benitez's offices are located inside the pro shop.
Other than being the home of UTA's men's and women's teams, the UTA Tennis Center also plays host to a variety of tournaments on a local and national scale. The Intercollegiate Tennis Association summer circuit makes a stop there, as do several junior and adult sanctioned tournaments. The Mavericks hosted the Southland Conference Tournament in 1998 and will host it again this season.
