Navy Field

Navy Field

Navy Field was located along Ridge Road behind Fetzer Field and across from Boshamer Stadium. It was originally used for military exercises when the U.S. Navy pre-flight school was on campus during World War II. The field was later adapted for use by UNC athletics, serving as a practice field for the football team and hosting home games for the field hockey and lacrosse teams for many years. Use of the field was discontinued in the 2010s to make way for the new indoor football practice facility.
