F&M Bank Arena is the arena for the Austin Peay Governors men's and women's basketball teams of the ASUN Conference. Located in downtown Clarksville, Tennessee, it seats up to 6,000 people. In addition to the main space, which holds events such as APSU's basketball games, concerts, banquets, conventions, and many other events, there is a second floor of F&M Bank Arena that will mainly be used for figure and youth skating.[1] The 250,000-square-foot complex is owned by Montgomery County and operated by the Nashville Predators and Sabretooth Sports & Entertainment, LLC, with Austin Peay serving as the facility’s primary tenant after signing a 30-year lease in Oct. 2020. F&M Bank arena replaced the Winfield Dunn Center, which was the home of Governors’ basketball from Dec. 1975 to March 2023. F&M Bank Arena houses the Austin Peay’s men’s and women’s basketball coaching offices which overlooks the team’s shared practice gym featuring 11 hoops, a scoreboard, shot clock, and state-of-the-art sound system. As of October 2024, F&M Bank Arena is also the home of the Red River Spartans hockey team.
