University of Windsor Stadium, Athletic stadium at University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada
University of Windsor Stadium, also called Alumni Field, is a 2,000-seat stadium on the University of Windsor campus in Windsor, Ontario. It has a FieldTurf playing surface and stands beside the St. Denis Athletic Centre. It is the home venue for the Windsor Lancers football, soccer and track and field teams.
University of Windsor Stadium was built with the City of Windsor to host the 2005 Pan American Junior Athletics Championships. The $8.6 million project, designed by JP Thomson Associates Ltd. and built by Eastern Construction, opened in June 2005. It later hosted the 2007 CSL All-star game, the 2007 Canadian Track and Field Championships and the 2008 Canadian Track and Field Trials.
The stadium is home to the Windsor Lancers football, soccer and track and field teams. Its FieldTurf surface was funded by a fundraising drive that included a $500,000 gift from the University of Windsor Alumni Association, then the largest in the association's history.
The venue sits next to the St. Denis Athletic Centre, providing easy access to additional training facilities and related sports amenities. Visitors will find well-maintained grounds and clear facilities designed to accommodate spectators comfortably.
The specialized FieldTurf playing surface was funded through substantial contributions from the University of Windsor Alumni Association. This shows how graduate support directly shapes the athletic facilities available to current students.
