DOC STADIUM

30 YEAR PARTNERSHIP WITH WEST CARROLLTON HS

Dayton Outpatient Center Stadium (DOC Stadium) is the home of Dayton Dutch Lions FC. In 2014,  Dayton Dutch Lions FC partnered with West Carrollton City Schools and Dr. Suresh Gupta of the Dayton Outpatient Center to install a new playing surface and press box in the West Carrollton High School Stadium as part of a 30-year deal. The original stadium was renamed to the Dayton Outpatient Center Stadium in recognition of the significant investment made. Besides the stadium field Dayton Dutch Lions FC also put two new grass fields in.

 

Renovations started on March 10, 2014, and were completed with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 9, 2014. The Motz Group, a Cincinnati-based company that specializes in building playing fields, replaced the existing grass field with artificial turf at a cost of $475,000. The combined costs for the renovations to the stadium and installation of lights on practice fields are estimated at $529,000. 

 

DOC Stadium, that seats 3.500 people, was officially opened on May 10, 2014, with a USL Championship game that saw the Dayton Dutch Lions FC tie the LA Galaxy II with 1–1 with a season record attendance of 1,600. Dayton Dutch Lions FC invited 2x FIFA Best Player of the World Ruud Gullit for a series of events regarding the official opening, including the kick-off with Dr. Suresh Gupta.
