Waterville, MAINE - Throughout the Second Semester, Colby Athletics will be running a series on our outdoor venues. Each Field/stadium/venue offers a multitude of specific advantages to maximize the capacity of our varsity programs, and it's time for you to get to know them.
VOLUME 5 - Bill Alfond Field
Bill Alfond Field opened in August 2017, and it serves as the venue for the field hockey and women's lacrosse teams during home contests. It is situated at the northeast corner of campus between Serdjenian Field (soccer) and the Baseball and Softball Complex.
The synthetic turf surface offers the Colby Mules the opportunity to accommodate early spring games, as well as competition during inclement weather. Other varsity programs, as well as club and intramural programs, are also able to benefit from the year-round access to Bill Alfond Field. Additional features include lights for night games and practices, an LED scoreboard, stadium seating built into the surrounding berm, and a new press box.
Even with snow on the ground, Bill Alfond Field can be expertly prepared to take on any competitor.
There are various vantage points around Bill Alfond Field for fans to enjoy watching great competition.
"We love playing on Bill Alfond Field and are proud to call it our home turf. Not only is it a beautiful place to play, it is a welcoming facility that offers a true stadium Feel for our players and fans. There is nothing better than competing on Bill Alfond Field with the CWL fans rooting for us!"
