Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College has soccer facilities better than any community college in the state of Mississippi. The school is committed to providing the best support for its student-athletes, as evidenced by the MGCCC Soccer Complex, which was renovated in 2016, and the King Center, which opened the same year.
The MGCCC Soccer Complex was expanded and renovated in 2016. The field got new dugouts and a decorative fence, and a new building containing the state's first locker rooms for community college soccer. In 2022, Bary Thrash Field was converted to artificial turf.
Gulf Coast's field is a launching pad for future four-year players.
The new dugouts include benches and an athletic training workspace, as well as a cooling mist system.
No other community college in the state has locker rooms for their soccer teams.
The locker rooms include a wide-screen HD television for film study during practice and player entertainment after.
The King Center contains the MGCCC Athletic Department offices. Classrooms are used by the entire student body, and all sports take advantage of the spacious Encore Rehabilitation/Bienville Orthopaedic Specialists Training Facility.
The training facility has the latest rehabilitation technology to treat bumps and bruises and get players back on the field quickly and safely.
There are multiple taping tables to get players ready for games and practices.
Eight different treatment tables are available for rehabilitation.
A cold tub helps rejuvenate bodies and get players ready for the next practice.
