Overview

The University of Massachusetts Athletic Department debuted another in its line of recent sport facility construction projects with the introduction of UMass field hockey's new home facility at the Gladchuk Field Hockey Complex in Fall 2015. The new home field gives the team its first dedicated competitive arena in program history, after spending 1997-2014 at Garber Field and prior to that at Totman Field.

Gladchuk features eight water cannons used to dampen the field prior to competition. The eight strategic locations, four along each sideline, allow for 100 percent coverage of the turf surface while the state-of-the-art underground system allows for recycling of what is sprayed onto the playing field. The surrounding exterior to the facility features permanent stands, a press box and restrooms. The facility is directly Northwest of the Football Performance Center and McGuirk Stadium and West of UMass Parking Services Lot No. 11.

The facility played host to NCAA Tournament action in 2015 and the Atlantic 10 Championship in 2017.
