Meade Stadium

Meade Stadium is a football facility at the University of Rhode Island that holds about 6,555 spectators across its seating areas. The main grandstand sits on the east side while a smaller one faces west, and the field features modern synthetic turf installed in recent years.

The facility was established in 1928 and named after John E. Meade, an early supporter of university athletics. Over the decades it has undergone several renovations to improve its features and infrastructure.

The stadium is where the university community and supporters gather to cheer for their team and share game days together. It serves as a focal point for Rams football tradition and draws together students, alumni, and local fans.

Multiple parking lots are located right next to the stadium for easy access and vehicle storage. Arriving early on game days helps secure convenient parking spots before the crowds build up.

The facility once drew remarkably high attendance numbers on a significant game day, showing how fans from across the region gathered to watch their team. This moment highlighted the strong connection people had to the Rams program during key matchups.
