Chicago Sky shift practices to Loyola amid training facility delays

Summary

The Chicago Sky will relocate their practices from Illinois-Chicago to Loyola this weekend due to ongoing delays in opening a new training facility in Bedford Park. Originally expected to be ready by May, the facility faced setbacks from flooding and architectural adjustments. The team has spent a quarter of the season in temporary accommodations while waiting for the Bedford Park venue. Despite assurances from Sky leadership about a hopeful completion before the 2026 season, the exact move-in date remains uncertain. Until then, practices will continue at Loyola and Wintrust Arena.
