Located in the Wellness and Athletic Center, Cliff Garrison Court at Grove Gymnasium, which seats up to 1,100, houses Hendrix's basketball and volleyball teams. The space is named for two of Hendrix's most iconic coaches, Ivan Grove and Cliff Garrison. As a member of the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference, Hendrix hosted back-to-back SCAC basketball tournaments at Grove Gymnasium in 2008 and 2009, and is set to host the 2026 SCAC men's and women's basketball tournaments - the institution's first year back as a full-time member of the conference.
