Overview
Edmond Memorial Stadium, a sleek and modern sports venue, sits at 1000 E 15th Street on the Edmond Memorial High School campus in Edmond, Oklahoma.The stadium, finished in 2019, became the long-awaited home for the school’s football and soccer teams, finally giving them a dedicated on-campus field with fresh paint still sharp under the sun.The stadium sits within a sprawling three-acre sports complex and was built for $13.5 million, a clear sign of the community’s drive to give its student-athletes first-class facilities-right down to the crisp white lines on the fresh turf.The stadium seats more than 5,000 fans, and its grandstands are built so you can see the field clearly from every spot-even from the top row.Seats line both sides of the field, but one side holds a larger main stand with press boxes, VIP rows, and easy-access spots for fans who use wheelchairs.Broad concourses link the seating sections, while bright signs guide people toward entrances, snack stands, and restrooms that smell faintly of fresh soap.At Edmond Memorial Stadium, players run on a full-sized synthetic turf field, its bright green surface built for both football and soccer.The turf holds up season after season, needing little upkeep, and keeps the field playable even after a hard rain.White lines trace the turf in patterns for both football and soccer, so the stadium can switch between games without a hitch.The sidelines feel wide open, with long benches for the players, a spot for the coaches, and clearly marked zones where athletic trainers and medical staff can work.Beside the stadium stands a $2 million field house with bright, fully stocked locker rooms for varsity teams, offices for the coaches, and training rooms lined with specialized equipment.One standout is the Adams Room, a weightlifting and conditioning space big enough for 100 athletes, where the clang of barbells echoes off the walls.Concession stands and restrooms sit right where you need them, ready to handle a packed house, and the wide gates let crowds move in and out without a hitch-even when the place is buzzing.High-quality stadium lighting throws an even glow over the field and stands, making evening and nighttime games possible under a crisp white light.The main stand includes a multi-level press box, with workstations for reporters, a booth for the announcer, and room for game-day staff shuffling papers and checking screens.The stadium’s design features cutting-edge sound and crystal-clear video screens, so every fan can catch the score and replays with ease.Before the stadium went up, Edmond Memorial High’s football team had no home turf, so every “home” game meant hauling their gear to another school’s field.When Edmond Memorial Stadium opened, the school finally had a central spot-a crisp, well-kept field-to host games, run practices, and hold tournaments.Outside of sports, the stadium buzzes with school plays, community fairs, and town meetings, cementing its place as the heart of local life.The stadium, along with the shops and walkways around it, is built to be easy for everyone to use, from wide ramps to clear, well-lit signs.Wide pathways, clearly marked seating, and smooth ramps make sure everyone can get around-and they meet all accessibility standards.Bright exit signs, well-marked escape routes, and a visible security team all work together to keep athletes and spectators safe.Edmond Memorial Stadium blends sleek modern design with well-equipped athletic facilities and welcoming community spaces, standing as both a local landmark and the heart of high school sports in the region, where Friday nights echo with cheering fans.
