Foothills Stadium, Baseball stadium in Northwest Calgary, Canada
Foothills Stadium is a baseball facility in Northwest Calgary that features a natural grass playing surface and traditional design. The venue accommodates thousands of spectators and is structured to host professional competitions.
The stadium opened in 1966 under its original name and served several professional baseball teams throughout its history. It grew to become an established venue for Calgary's baseball community.
The Calgary Expos, a rookie-level Pioneer League affiliate of the Montreal Expos, played here from 1977 to 1984. The Calgary Vipers of the independent North American League made Foothills their home from 2004 to 2011. After the Vipers folded, the University of Calgary Dinos, the Calgary Junior Dinos, the Calgary PBF Redbirds and Babe Ruth Calgary used the diamond.
The venue sits along Crowchild Trail in the northwest area and connects easily to public transportation. Visitors will find parking available and standard facilities for spectators.
The 2004 refurbishment of Foothills Stadium included installing the ViperVision video screen in right field, a detail tied to the stadium's years as home of the Calgary Vipers. The same project came after earlier renovations in 1985 that preceded the Calgary Cannons' arrival.
