Directions
Deborah Tobias Field is located southwest of Bill Armstrong Stadium and to the west of St. Paul's Catholic Church on 17th Street.

After playing its first seven seasons in Mellencamp Pavilion and being one of the only field hockey programs in the country to play indoors, the team made the move to the brand new Deborah Tobias Field during the summer of 2007. The first home game was held August 31, 2007.

The IU Field Hockey turf, located next to Armstrong Stadium, features a Hockey Gold system by FieldTurf. The surface is certified Category 3 (Previously "National") by the FIH Quality Programme for Hockey Turf and is designed specifically for the highest levels of competition. The venue is also equipped with Nelson Water Cannon system that enables the entire field to be watered for play in under 30 minutes, and offers the team a private practice venue.

The Ireland Family Fieldhouse was completed in August 2009. Located adjacent to the IU Field Hockey turf, the building houses the team's locker room, meeting room for the staff and storage for equipment.
