  • Beach Volleyball—7 lighted courts
  • Event Space—28,000 square feet of open space perfect for community gatherings, sports events + more
  • MVP Fitness Center—An indoor/outdoor fitness space totaling 4,000 square feet
  • Retail Space—2 retail spaces available for lease

There will be space for pickleball, basketball and volleyball in AGCSC, and it will be the new home of PIVC. With the Gulf Coast’s miles of sandy shoreline, beach volleyball is the perfect anchor for the AGCSC.

“This project has been in the works for over 2 years, and it is finally coming to life. We can’t wait to share this incredible space with the community!”
