Medford, the heart of the Rogue Valley and Southern Oregon, offers premier recreation opportunities and sporting venues for the amateur, youth and collegiate levels. Situated halfway between Portland and San Francisco, the Rogue Valley is quickly being recognized for its natural competition terrain, state-of-the-art competitive and recreational venues, and a world-class destination for tourists and their families.
Slated to open in early 2023, a new indoor, 90,000 square-foot center for sports, aquatic and meeting center will open for leisure and competitive activities. The Rogue Credit Union Community Complex will boast competition and recreation pools, meeting space, and room for eight basketball courts and any variation for volleyball, pickleball, wrestling, cheer and dance competitions, and more.
The site will also feature food trucks, concessions and an information center to accommodate visitors and locals, alike. Tournament space is filling quickly for this prime venue, so contact Angela Wood at Travel Medford, 541-608-8517 or angelaw@travelmedford.org, for more information.
