Florida to host 2028 NCAA Gymnastics Regional in O'Connell Center

The NCAA announced over 240 host site selections for various collegiate sports on Wednesday, including women’s college volleyball. Among those who earned the prestigious honor was the Florida volleyball program, which was picked to host the NCAA Gymnastics Regional Championships in 2028.

The regional sites for the 2027 and 2028 NCAA gymnastics postseasons were featured in the announcement. Fort Worth, Texas, remains the site for the 2027 NCAA Championships, with the 2028 final site to be announced at a later date.

This will be the 15th NCAA Regional held in the O’Connell Center.

“This is terrific news that NCAA Regional action is returning to Gainesville in 2028,” Florida head coach Jenny Rowland offered.

“It was a great experience for our team to play host to regionals this past season and Gator fans turned out with almost double the attendance of any other region site,” she continued. “This is an opportunity for gymnastics fans to cheer some of the nation’s top gymnasts as they compete for a national championship berth.”
