Hinchliffe Stadium

About

Hinchliffe Stadium is a 10,000-seat stadium located in Paterson, New Jersey. The stadium is located atop the Great Falls of the Passaic River, and is part of the surrounding National Historical Park.

The stadium, built in 1932, was closed in 1996 after years of neglect, but reopened in 2023, and is currently home to the Frontier League's New Jersey Jackals and USL League One's New York Cosmos. The stadium's primary user is the Paterson Board of Education, where it serves as a multipurpose facility for the city's two high schools, Eastside High School and Kennedy High School, primarily hosting their football home games, along with their annual game on Thanksgiving Day.

Hinchliffe Stadium was also used as the home of the New York Black Yankees and New York Cubans of the Negro leagues, and is one of four stadia still standing that hosted Negro league baseball games.
