Liza Wellford Fletcher Stadium at the University of Memphis
For a better, brighter tomorrow.
Welcome to the official page for the Liza Wellford Fletcher Stadium at the University of Memphis. We are thrilled to embark on this transformative journey to create a state-of-the-art facility for the University of Memphis women’s and men’s soccer and track and field teams, celebrating the life and legacy of Liza. Join us in shining a light on the future of our student-athletes and our community.
Liza was a beloved teacher, dedicated runner, and an inspiring figure in the Memphis community. In her honor, we are building a new stadium that reflects her passion and dedication. The Liza Wellford Fletcher Stadium will not only enhance the University of Memphis athletic programs, it will stand as a beacon of hope, resilience, and community spirit.
Liza’s Light
The building of this new facility is supported by the Liza’s Light University of Memphis Soccer and Track Stadium Fund, named to reflect the brightness and inspiration Liza brought to those around her.
Our phase one goal is to raise $7 million to provide top-notch amenities that our student-athletes deserve. These upgrades will enable our soccer and track and field teams to achieve new heights of success, both on and off the field.
