Veterans Memorial Stadium (Quincy, Massachusetts)

Veterans Memorial Stadium is a multipurpose outdoor stadium in Quincy, Massachusetts. Built from 1937-1938 under the Works Progress Administration,[1] it seats 5,000 spectators[2] for football, soccer and lacrosse. The stadium underwent a $1.2 million renovation in 2006, including accessibility improvements and new synthetic turf as well as making the stadium usable as a lacrosse and soccer field,[3] and another $1.5 million renovation in 2018, adding extra capacity and a large electronic video board.[4] It is the home field of Quincy High School athletics, namely football and soccer. The grounds have most notably held the annual intracity Thanksgiving Day Game between QHS and NQHS, dubbed by SI.com as one of the best in America,[5] since 1932.

Throughout the 1960s, the Boston Patriots played several preseason intra-squad scrimmages for charity at the stadium.

In 1976 it served as a home stadium for the Boston Minutemen of the North American Soccer League.[6]

As of 2019, the stadium is home of the Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse.[7] The first game in the stadium was played on June 1, 2019, against the New York Lizards.
