mid-atlantic league
The Mid-Atlantic League was conceived by multiple club directors to provide club teams the opportunity to play competitive field hockey on water-based turf, while managing financial and travel time commitments, and to offer preparation for USAFH Regional Club Championships. The Mid-Atlantic League will be played at the University of Delaware’s Rullo Stadium, home of Delaware Field Hockey. In addition to the 2.82 acres of water-based turf, the facility has bleacher seating for 2,000 fans, stadium lights, a press box, a multi-sport scoreboard and a filming platform.
