The Bowling and Billiards Center (BBC) will be closing Saturday for construction of the new Redbird Esports project.

BBC’s activity room will be transfigured to house an Esports gaming space. As of now, BBC is currently projected to reopen in the fall of 2022.

While BBC is still under construction, Redbird Esports varsity teams and gaming clubs will practice and compete in the Vault, located in the Student Fitness Center.

Questions or requests for additional information can call Rick Holmes at (309) 438-4558. The Illinois State University Campus Recreation website will also be posting periodic updates on the project.
