Homewood Field, Multi-purpose stadium in Baltimore, Maryland
Homewood Field is a stadium on the Johns Hopkins University campus in Baltimore, Maryland, used for lacrosse, soccer, and field hockey. The venue has both natural grass and artificial turf sections and a grandstand that holds several thousand spectators.
The stadium opened in 1906, making it one of the oldest athletic venues in the country still in regular use. Over the decades it was gradually expanded to keep up with the growing demands of collegiate sports.
The field is home to the Johns Hopkins Blue Jays lacrosse team, and on game days the stands fill with students, alumni, and longtime fans. Lacrosse has deep roots in Maryland, and watching a match here gives a clear sense of how central the sport is to local identity.
The stadium is easy to reach through the Johns Hopkins University campus, and signs guide visitors directly to the entrance. For popular games it is worth arriving early, since seating on the grandstand is limited.
Although the stadium is most associated with lacrosse, the combined turf surface allows a rapid switch between sports without major reconstruction. This means several different teams can use the same field across a single season without the playing surface needing to be replaced.
