Jane Sanders Stadium, Softball stadium at University of Oregon, Eugene, United States
Jane Sanders Stadium is a softball facility at the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon, with seating for over 2,000 spectators. The field combines a clay infield with an artificial turf outfield, a setup designed for the wet weather common to the Pacific Northwest.
The stadium opened in 2016, replacing an older field that had been in use since the 1930s. This shift gave the university softball program a purpose-built home for the first time in its history.
The stadium is home to the Oregon Ducks softball team, drawing students and fans from across the campus and the city. On game days, the stands fill with supporters whose energy reflects how deeply the university community follows its teams.
The stadium sits on the University of Oregon campus and is easy to reach on foot from the center of Eugene. On game days it is worth arriving a little early, as parking around campus can fill up quickly.
The stadium was named in honor of Jane Sanders, wife of the American politician Bernie Sanders, after a private donor funded a large part of its construction. The naming was a personal tribute rather than a corporate sponsorship, which sets it apart from many other university facilities.
