Sportsplex at Matthews, Sports venue in Matthews, North Carolina, United States
Sportsplex at Matthews is a sports venue in Matthews, North Carolina, United States, featuring 12 full-sized soccer fields and a stadium with 5,000 seats. The site also includes an auxiliary stadium around Field 10, used for training and occasional matches.
The idea for a sports complex in Matthews emerged in the early 2000s, but construction was delayed by the Great Recession and finally began in 2012. After a soft opening in 2015, the complex was completed in early 2017.
Local soccer fans gather here to watch the Charlotte Eagles and Lady Eagles play, and the auxiliary field often hosts training sessions. The site feels like a community hub where families and players come together on weekends.
