Edward A. LeLacheur Park is a collegiate-style baseball stadium located on the University of Massachusetts Lowell campus in Lowell, Massachusetts, on the scenic banks of the Merrimack River. Opened in 1998 through a partnership between the City of Lowell and UMass Lowell, the ballpark seats roughly 4,700 fans with room for additional standing spectators, offering great sightlines and a compact, energetic atmosphere.

Owned and operated by UMass Lowell, LeLacheur Park is the home field for the UMass Lowell River Hawks baseball team, competing in NCAA Division I’s America East Conference.

Following a period without professional summer baseball after the contraction of affiliated minor league teams in 2020, baseball returned to LeLacheur Park for the 2026 season with the Lowell Spinners, a new franchise in the Futures Collegiate Baseball League (FCBL). The Spinners revive a beloved local tradition at the park, connecting to Lowell’s community spirit and rich sports heritage while providing summer opportunities for top collegiate players to develop in front of enthusiastic crowds.

LeLacheur Park is known for its engaging fan experience, community-oriented promotions, and location within Lowell’s vibrant university district, making it both a competitive athletic venue and a local entertainment hub throughout the spring and summer baseball seasons.
