Directions to Mebane Field-house at Christ School for EYBL Participants and Fans

Christ School is located in Arden, NC at the end of Christ School Rd., which juts off Sweeten Creek Rd. near where it intersects with Hendersonville Rd. Typing 500 Christ School Rd. into your preferred navigation app will bring you right to us. Upon reaching campus, you'll pass a traffic circle in front of our large Christ School sign. That is just before the yellow line begins on the left side of the image below. Turn right at the following 4-way intersection to get to either of the parking areas indicated below. Team vehicles should follow the longest yellow line all the way around the south edge of campus until they reach the lot below the Mebane Fieldhouse. Fans should follow the medium-length red line to the larger lots nearer to the campus entrance. The shortest green line shows how players can reach the dining hall.
