Veterans Memorial Stadium is a multipurpose outdoor stadium in Quincy, Massachusetts. Built from 1937-1938 under the Works Progress Administration, it seats 3,000 spectators for football, soccer and lacrosse. The stadium underwent a $1.2 million renovation in 2006, including accessibility improvements and new synthetic turf as well as making the stadium usable as a lacrosse and soccer field. It is the home to both Quincy High School and North Quincy High School. With the historic main grandstand and iconic brick walls, it is known affectionately as "The Stadium" to student athletes throughout the City of Quincy. The grounds have most notably held the annual intracity Thanksgiving Day Game between QHS and NQHS, dubbed by SI.com as one of the best in America, since 1932.
In 1976 it served as a home stadium for the Boston Minutemen of the North American Soccer League.
