WHY CAMPAIGN OF CHAMPIONS
"A World-Class University Deserves A Best-In-Class Facility."
While Pauley Pavilion's mystique remains as strong as ever, it is clear that the arena needs significant transformation to remain a world class venue.
- Infrastructure is deteriorating

- Athletic facilities are limited and inferior
- Seating is sub-standard
- Aisle way step system is dangerous
- Uncentered court resulting in seats being too far from court
- Number and quality of restrooms and concessions are insufficient
- Technology is antiquated
