GETTLER STADIUM |
| W. Corry St. off of Jefferson Ave. |
Gettler Stadium is the home for both the University of Cincinnati men's and women's soccer teams, the outdoor track teams and the women's lacrosse team. The facility, rebuilt following the 2003 season, was named in recognition of the gift by Ben and Dee Gettler to the Richard E. Lindner Varsity Village.
The renovated facility features an official-size soccer field with FieldTurf Pro playing surface. The surface has been sanctioned by FIFA, the international governing body of soccer, for all levels of play except the semifinals and finals of the World Cup. Also present are an eight-lane, 400-meter track, permanent grandstand seating for 1,400, concession stands and restrooms, team rooms and a pressbox.
These improvements follow a facility upgrade from 2000 that saw the installation of new lights and a new scoreboard with message center.
