sports venues
Where athletes compete
Sports venues are facilities designed for athletic events and competitions—stadiums, arenas, fields, courts, and tracks where games are played and spectators gather.
The term covers everything from massive football stadiums to local baseball diamonds: The city invested heavily in new sports venues for the Olympics.
Venue implies a designated place for organized activity rather than casual play.
