Public parking is located in University Lot 46, located immediately west of the facility. Upon arrival, visitors should enter Carver-Hawkeye Arena at the North Entrance and take either the elevator or the stairs to the third level.

Members of the public are welcome to observe a practice session from one of the coach’s motorboats.
