Jack Coffey Field is a 7,000-seat multi-purpose stadium in The Bronx, New York. It is home to the Fordham University Rams football team and Fordham soccer. The facility opened in 1930. The field is named for former Fordham baseball coach Jack Coffey. The facility also includes Houlihan Park, home of the Fordham Rams baseball team.[1]

Jack Coffey Field has undergone recent renovations, including the addition of a full-color DakTronics video scoreboard beyond the Southern Boulevard endzone. In 2014, the FieldTurf surface will be replaced with FieldTurfTM.
