sports field
Outdoor competition venue
A sports field is an outdoor area designed for athletic competition—football fields, soccer pitches, baseball diamonds.
The term emphasizes the playing surface itself rather than the surrounding stadium or facilities: The sports field was waterlogged after the rain.
Fields are typically grass or artificial turf, marked with lines specific to each sport.
