Multi-Sport Field Multi-Sport Field has been the home of the Georgetown University women’s lacrosse team since the 2006 season. Multi-Sport Field, a FieldTurf surface, is home to football and the men’s and women’s lacrosse teams. Located at the center of campus, the facility currently has a seating capacity of 2,500, but upon completion will accommodate a seating capacity of 4,500 (2,000 in the East stands and 2,500 in the West stands). A new multi-purpose field of FieldTurf will allow year-round practices and games for football and men’s and women’s lacrosse. Multi-Sport Field, the most significant undertaking in the history of Georgetown athletics, will provide a new and adequately sized gathering place for the Georgetown community, including hundreds of athletic, academic, educational and recreational opportunities throughout the years to engage students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents, neighbors and friends. Situated at the heart of campus and adjacent to the Southwest Quad, Village C and Harbin Dorms, Multi-Sport Field will serve as a natural hub for walkway “spokes,” enabling all the amenities and spaces of the campus to be interconnected for use and enjoyment on a 24/7 basis. The central location guarantees audiences for future events on the Hilltop, while providing a pastoral focal point for all who look down from the dorms. The facility will be built in a phased sequence to minimize the effect on game schedules and to allow for greater integration among facility projects. The first phase, unveiled on September 17, 2005 for the Hoyas football home opener against Brown, included the construction of the artificial turf field and the implementation of temporary stands and press box. The next phases will include the completion of the stands, permanent fencing, a two-level press box, support spaces, locker rooms, video and conference rooms and training room, as well as a new video scoreboard.
