Jack Couch Park is a baseball stadium in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, that serves as home of the Kitchener Panthers of the Canadian Baseball League. The stadium is located on the grounds of the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium.

The park was constructed in 1967 as part of Canada's centennial projects[1] replacing a previous stadium in Victoria Park the team had called home since their inception [2]

In 1993 The park was floated as a possible location for a Double-A Eastern League affiliate for either the Colorado Rockies or Miami Marlins, or a Single-A New York-Penn League affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals but the plans never came to fruition [3][4]

Prior is the 2025 season the park underwent significant upgrades including new dugouts, batting cages, seating, and a LED video board [5]
