Here's what Cary Magazine had to say about the WCC!
"BEFORE THE YEAR IS OUT, athletes in Wake County will have a new playing field: a campus where they can perform gymnastics or figure skate, play volleyball or soccer, get specialized training or watch the Carolina Hurricanes practice.
The Western Wake Competition Center, off the still under-construction McCrimmon Parkway extension in Morrisville, is the brainchild of local developer Jeff Ammons.
On a sunny day this spring, Ammons was showing off a just completed soccer field, one of two on the campus, and pointing out the progress: construction workers crawling all over the building that will hold Superior Gymnastics and the Athletic Lab; the just delivered steel for the facility that will house two ice rinks (one with 1,500 seats for spectators so it can host figure skating tournaments), the ’Canes practice facility, a restaurant, a pro shop and, on the second floor, rooms for corporate meetings, yoga classes, birthday parties and, possibly, a middle school and high school.
“I’m just sort of dreaming on it,” Ammons said of the schools. “Other places have them...The idea is that you could come to school here and play volleyball from 7 to 9, go to class for a couple of hours, lunch break, do your skating, do your working out, whatever. It sounds crazy to people who don’t necessarily have kids in it, but what I like to tell them is: A lot of people do this now. They’re taking them to their private school, and they’re taking them to their athletic thing. All I’m really doing is putting them in one place.”
The WCC is a state of the art multi-sport competition facility located in Wake County, NC - designed to meet the needs of local Youth, Amateur as well as National Professional Sporting Events.
