FOXBOROUGH, MA — Suffolk and The Kraft Group recently celebrated the topping off of a new training facility for the New England Patriots. The facility will include a weight room, training room with hydro capabilities, and meeting rooms. It is located adjacent to Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
“The Kraft Group is committed to delivering a quality product for its fans and providing its players and staff an unparalleled experience while they train at the Gillette Stadium campus,” said John Fish, Chairman and CEO, Suffolk. "We are honored to partner with The Kraft Group to build this important training facility for the New England Patriots, and we are thankful to the trade partners for their hard work and commitment to reaching this project milestone on time and on budget and look forward to the successful completion of the facility next spring.”
“Suffolk is our long-time highly trusted partner for every complex construction project we take on,” said Jonathan Kraft, President of The Kraft Group. “They not only meet our timelines but do so while working around complicated job site logistics and constraints. The quality of the finished product is always at the highest level, and the overall value of their work is unparalleled. We are proud to work together to deliver this new training facility that will support the New England Patriots and provide our players, coaches, and staff with the environment and the resources they need to succeed both on and off the field.”
The building will include a nutrition center, player lounge, and an open-space locker room. The locker room will be connected to an expanded weight room, opening directly onto three practice fields. The facility will feature training rooms with a significant expansion of hydrotherapy capabilities, including hot tubs, cold plunge tubs, a pool, and an underwater treadmill. Football administration offices and meeting rooms will feature virtual reality rooms and new technologies for draft operations. The ground floor of the building will be home to the media workroom, providing access to the team's practice fields and locker room.
The training center was designed by global design firm and long-time Kraft Group partner Populous, which specializes in sports facilities at the collegiate and professional levels. The targeted completion date for the new Patriots Training Facility is spring 2026.
