Stadium

Wallis Annenberg Stadium, UCLA venue

From 1969 until 2017 the Bruins played at Frank Marshall Field of Drake Stadium on campus. The stadium is named in honor of Elvin C. "Ducky" Drake, UCLA's long time trainer and former student athlete. Film producer Marshall graduated from UCLA.

In 2018, the program moved into the soccer-specific stadium, Wallis Annenberg Stadium, along with the women's soccer program.
