Stevenson-Pincince Field is a stadium in Providence, Rhode Island on the campus of Brown University. It is home to the Brown Bears soccer and lacrosse programs.

Name

The stadium was named in 1979 for longtime men's soccer coach Cliff Stevenson, who was successful in establishing a men's soccer program at Brown during the 1960s. In 2015, the facility was renamed Stevenson-Pincince Field to also honor longtime women's soccer coach Phil Pincince.

Description and history

The stadium seats 3,500 and has hosted games in both the NCAA soccer and lacrosse tournaments. In 2001 and again in 2012, Stevenson-Pincince Field received upgrades to its lighting and field surface.

On April 3, 2019, Brown University announced that the aluminum bleachers and pressbox would be replaced with a new 3-story, 22,500 sf stadium facility, complete with dedicated team locker rooms and training, coaches' offices, and public restrooms and concessions. The facility was completed in February 2020.
