Alumni Stadium is the on-campus soccer stadium in natural grass at the University of Notre Dame in Notre Dame, Indiana.[2] The current tenants are the Notre Dame Fighting Irish men's & women's soccer teams.[3]

The 3,007 -seat stadium was built between April 26, 2008, and September 1, 2009. It was first used on September 4, 2009, when the women's team played North Carolina and the men's team played Wake Forest. Capacity is increased via a grass berm on the east end of the ground.[4] Its largest crowd was 3,511 guests to assist the women's team versus Tulsa on September 2, 2011.[5] It has hosted NCAA tournament games.[6]
