Georgia's William Porter Payne and Porter Otis Payne Indoor Athletic Facility is one of the nation’s top indoor athletic facilities.

In April of 2018, Georgia dedicated the William Porter Payne and Porter Otis Payne Indoor Athletic Facility in honor of former UGA all-star football player Billy Payne and his father, the late Porter Payne, also a former Bulldog letterman. Dubbed the "House of Payne," the facility is located on the Woodruff Practice Fields and is connected to Butts-Mehre Heritage Hall.

The facility is programmed for maximum functionality, as it is approximately 140 yards long, 80 yards wide and 76 feet high. The Payne Facility can be utilized by the Bulldogs for practices, walkthroughs and conditioning work and also will be used by other sports in need of indoor space.
