Burnham Field is a soccer-specific stadium located on the campus of Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, and used exclusively for Dartmouth's men's and women's soccer teams. The field was finished in time for the 2007 college soccer season and includes full lighting, 1,600-seat stands, a press box and a level 10 natural grass playing surface. It is named after Whitey Burnham who was the Dartmouth men's coach from 1960–1989 and who led the Big Green to its first Ivy League soccer championship in 1964.[1] The complex cost over $4.5 million to build and includes a state-of-the-art locker and training room that is shared with the men's lacrosse team.[2]
