Greene Street Field at the Colonial Life Arena
Greene Street Field at the Colonial Life Arena is the University of South Carolina's newest campus recreational field. Opened during the 2009-2010 school year, the field serves many of the school's sports clubs, including Men's Rugby at the University of South Carolina. Though not the club's primary pitch, Greene Street Field serves as an all-weather back-up surface to ensure Men's Rugby fulfills all of its home match obligations. The pitch also functions as a venue for matches when the STWFC Field is unavailable due to previously scheduled events.
Gameday Information
Please arrive for games at least 15 minutes prior to kick-off, both to ensure you make it to the match on time and to enjoy our pre-match festivities. Matches may be cancelled, match times may be changed, or opponents may be changed at any time, so please keep up-to-date with us here at uscrugby.org. We ask that our spectators respect our field rope and stand at least 5m away from the pitch at all times in accordance to USA Rugby's safety regulations.
Pitch Rules
1. No alcohol of any form is allowed on the pitch, open or not.
2. In accordance with University of South Carolina wellness policy, tobacco and other smoking products are not allowed on the pitch.
3. No dogs or other pets are allowed on the pitch.
4. No person may play golf or in any other way advertently harm the playing surface.
5. Failure to abide by these rules, or any rules posted on the playing surface, may result in a fine or removal from the facility.
Parking Information
1. The host club generally suggests parking next to the Coliseum or Colonial Life Arena, located across Blossom Street from the Strom Thurmond Wellness and Fitness Center. There are also a number of meter spots along Assembly Street, as the City of Columbia does not assess meter fines on the weekend.
2. Do NOT park in the STWC lot south of Blossom Street or the Greek Village if you do not have a pass for said lots. You will be towed if you do so.
3. Please remember that USC's campus is in the heart of downtown Columbia, and that parking is sometimes at a premium. This is something to factor in to your travel arrangements.
