McMaster University's artificial soft surface Alumni Field began serving the McMaster and surrounding community in 2006.

The development of the field was made possible through a generous donation from the McMaster Alumni Association. With over 125,000 alumni living in 125 countries, the McMaster Alumni Association holds the mission of supporting McMaster University, involving alumni and current students, recognizing alumni achievements, communicating with and providing services and benefits for alumni.

The venue is available for rent to community partners, and provides another venue to support the City of Hamilton sport tourism strategy.

Formerly known as the Intramural Field, Alumni Field is located behind the Smith gymnasium in the Ivor Wynne Centre on the McMaster University Main Campus. The field is a competitive venue for McMaster lacrosse and field hockey, intramural and club programs and a practice venue for McMaster football and soccer. A wireless score clock is affixed to the north Ivor Wynne Centre wall.
