Lebard Stadium

This facility is situated on the Orange Coast College campus and is home to the Pirates as well as the Golden West College football team. It is part of the OCC athletics complex which also includes the 1,700-seat Basil H. Peterson Gymnasium, the Doc Mason Fieldhouse, an outdoor swimming facility, 12 tennis courts and a nine-lane track. It was designed by Parker, Zehnder and Associates and built for $296,650, opening on September 16, 1955. Originally named Pirate Stadium, it was renamed in 1967 for Harry R. LeBard, a community leader and a founding member of the district's board of trustees. The all-time attendance record for LeBard came in 1962, when 10,000 piled in to see the OCC gridders take on Fullerton.
