UNI Softball Camps
Facilities/Directions
Robinson-Dresser Sports Complex (Game Facility)
In 2008, the Panthers began play at their new home, Robinson-Dresser Sports Complex. The facility, located along West 12th Street just northwest of the UNI campus, replaces Panther Park, which had served as the Panthers home field for 30 seasons, beginning with the 1978 campaign.
Robinson-Dresser boasts many of the amenities lacking at Panther Park, including a press box, permanent seating, and on-site restrooms and concessions facilities. Fans also will enjoy an upgrade in parking, as Robinson-Dresser features a large, paved parking lot immediately adjacent to the softball field. The field, which has been used by Cedar Falls High School since its completion in the summer of 1989, was upgraded over the summer and fall of 2007, with improvements made to the turf, drainage system, scoreboard and outfield fence. The facility also features a lighting system for night games and large bullpen areas for both the home and visiting teams.
UNI-Dome (Camp Facility)
The Dome has an astro-turf football surface that can be rolled up when not in use; a removable basketball court; and an all-purpose floor marked as a running track.
The Dome is used for concerts, community events such as recreational and craft shows, and commencement ceremonies. When the Dome is not in use by the University, it can be rented for various purposes. The main seating area accommodates over 16,000 people for football games.
The building has four main concourse level entrances: two on the east and two on the west. Each is named after a major contributor to the Dome project. There are also two other entrances: one on the north and one on the south side. The north entrance opens into a hallway which leads to the Physical Education Center.
