Veterans Stadium’s Final Game | Los Angeles News
Description
Long Beach’s legendary Veterans Memorial Stadium, the historic heart of high school football for 70 years, has played its final game — a 30-13 loss for Poly against Yorba Linda — before demolition begins to make way for a $250 million sports complex. Once home to record-breaking crowds like the 2001 Poly vs. De La Salle showdown and the last game ever for Long Beach City College, the site will rise as an 18-acre athletic hub by 2029, featuring new fields for football, soccer, and track, funded by a bond measure from LBC. Designed to host state championships and elevate local competition, this transformation marks a bold new chapter for Long Beach athletics.
