Card Gymnasium was built during the initial construction period on the Duke University’s West Campus. It opened in 1930.

In 1958 it was named for Wilbur Wade Card, Trinity's first athletic director and basketball coach. The gym could accommodate about 4,000 spectators for basketball.

Card Gym is still in use for Athletics at Duke and is located right next to Cameron Indoor Stadium.
