The Kent State Field house is an AMA /FAI Category II site measuring 49 feet in height. The roof is peaked in the middle which makes it an excellent site for setting glider records. Over the years records in F1D, LPP, EZB, HLG, SCLG, UCLG, A6, F1L, F1M, F1N, Cabin, Autogyro, and Ministick, have been set at this facility. The floor space is huge! It is a full-size football field surrounded by a six lane track. It is one of the premiere Cat II indoor sites in the USA and people come from across the USA and from Canada to attend.
All contestants must have a valid AMA license or modeling license of their home country.

Please bring your own tables and chairs if possible as there are a limited number of tables and chairs at the facility.
Helium is not provided for steering balloons.
Note: The men's and women's locker rooms are located on the south wall of the facility. During the contest a team may show up to dress for or to return from their sport. This is generally not an issue however I highly suggest not setting up your model table and planes near the locker room area.
