Segra Field is a soccer-specific stadium located in Leesburg, Virginia within Phillip A. Bolen Park and alongside Loudoun Soccer Park.

With a capacity of 5,000 seats, eight suites and two premium seating sections, Segra Field is a state-of-the-art stadium. The Loudoun County venue provides an intimate atmosphere for fans with its dedicated supporter section located on the south end of the stadium behind the net.

Built as the home of D.C. United affiliate Loudoun United FC, construction began on the stadium in March of 2019, and the venue was officially opened on August 9, 2019 when Loudoun United FC played the stadium’s inaugural match against the Charlotte Independence.

The Spirit made history in September of 2020 with their debut as the first-ever professional women’s soccer team to play at the ground.

Segra Field is an important part of the Spirit’s future as the club will move all technical, support and training staff to the new location in 2021. D.C. United aims to bring a world-class training facility to the Loudoun complex to supplement both the Spirit and Loudoun United FC.
