Pennington Field is a multi-purpose stadium located in Bedford, Texas. The 12,500-capacity facility is primarily used for local high school football and soccer teams of Trinity High School and L.D. Bell High School. It is owned and operated by the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District.
In addition to high school sports, Pennington Field was previously used by the DFW Tornados of the Premier Development League from 2004-2010, the American Eightman Football League (AEFL),[5] and the Red River Bowl for NJCAA. In 2024, it was announced as a practice facility for the San Antonio Brahmas and Michigan Panthers of the UFL.[6]
Pennington Field does not have a track around the field, partly because the city of Bedford has an ordinance requiring all tracks to be open to the public. The result is that the seats are closer to the sidelines, creating a more intimate spectator experience.[7]
