Alfond Stadium, stadium in Winter Park, Florida
Alfond Stadium is a multi-purpose sports venue in Winter Park used primarily for college baseball with a capacity of around 1,000 spectators. The field features artificial turf, a modern scoreboard, locker rooms, a weight room, and covered bleachers with a sound system.
The stadium was acquired by Rollins College in 1933 after the land was donated by local business owners in 1926. Its current form took shape in 1983 with new grandstands, followed by lighting upgrades in 2012 and artificial turf installation before the 2019 season.
The stadium is woven into the life of Rollins College and the local community, serving as a gathering place for students and fans who experience college baseball in a personal setting. The space carries a sense of tradition and belonging that has developed over many decades.
The venue is easily accessible from Interstate 4 with limited parking available nearby and street parking options. Visitors should expect basic facilities and a relaxed game experience where families and friends come to unwind together.
The stadium hosted an exhibition game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and college players in 1983 during its official dedication, a rare event that drew significant local attention. It also hosts the oldest ongoing college baseball tournament in the country, held since 1948 during the regular season.
