Northwestern University Athletics
Lakeside Field
LAKESIDE FIELD ADDRESS
2311 N Campus Dr.
Evanston, IL 60208
Built in 1997 as part of the $3.5 million Leonard B. Thomas Athletic Complex (LBT), Lakeside Field is one of the premier venues for field hockey in the United States.
Located on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan, with the world famous Chicago skyline serving as a panoramic backdrop, Lakeside Field includes an artificial turf playing field lined specifically for field hockey, permanent seating for approximately 300 fans, a sound system, a permanent scoreboard, lighting for night games and extensive landscaping.
The installment of the complex on the north end of Northwestern's main campus brings field hockey closer to students’ residences and has attracted additional fans to the team's games. On a sunny day in the fall, the stands are packed to beyond capacity with fans spilling over onto the sidelines.
In 2015, a brand new turf field was installed to once again give Northwestern the nation's preeminent playing surface.
Northwestern field hockey is proud to call Lakeside Field "home" as it truly is one of the best and most picturesque facilities in the country.
