The Leonard E. Merrell Center is a 5,600-seat multi-purpose arena in Katy, Texas. It was built in 2005 and will be home in 2007 to the Katy Ruff Riders of the Intense Football League and was the former home of the Katy Copperheads (National Indoor Football League). The Merrell Center hosted to the 2008 Southland Conference Men's and Women's Basketball Tournaments from March 12 to 16.
