FSU Softball Field

Florida State University is home to one of the premier softball complexes in the nation. JoAnne Graf Field at the Seminole Softball Complex is state-of-the art in every facet and provides Florida State softball players with an all-inclusive complex that includes locker rooms, meeting rooms and one of the best playing surfaces anywhere in the country. JoAnne Graf Field has hosted NCAA Regionals in 2001, 2002, 2004, 2009, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022 and 2023. The Noles have hosted a NCAA Super Regional in 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2023.

Known as one of NCAA softball’s best venues, JoAnne Graf Field is a modernized field of play that caters quite well to student-athletes, coaches, fans, and other spectators. Since opening in 1999, Florida State has played to the venue’s home-field advantage. The Seminoles have recorded 553 victories in their 20 years at JoAnne Graf Field. The complex was also featured in Athletic Business Magazine’s 2002 Architectural Showcase.

An eye-catching addition to the complex was completed in 2011 when a new indoor batting facility was constructed. The facility, which was awarded the 2011 AIA Tallahassee Chapter Design Achievement Honor Award, is endorsed for its combination of external features, comfortable nature, and multiple purposes within the sport of softball. Approaching nearly 12,000 square feet, the brand-new feature is unique and aesthetically pleasing. It is a two-story facility that includes a sizeable bullpen, hitting nets and a wide area on the top floor for stretching and other softball activities. The near million-dollar facility that was spear-headed by architects Lewis + Whitlock is a beacon for future player development while providing a safe haven from inclement weather.

“The Plex” got quite the facelift prior to the 2023 season. A brand-new videoboard was installed in right center field. FSU also added more seating by adding a deck that now lines the third base line where fans can bring their own chairs and sit with a ledge in front of them for food and drinks. FSU also added premium seating with an overhang that extends from the second floor of the batting cages. FSU also installed turf in foul territory around the infield.

The team building underwent a multi-million-dollar renovation to the second floor which began in October 2008. The expansion to the second floor now includes new offices, a team meeting room, tradition space for both softball and soccer and a player lounge.
