Ashford's South Campus

The former Clinton Country Club was purchased by Bridgepoint Education and is now property of Ashford University for future campus expansion.

A new artificial turf soccer field and outdoor track for both the men's and women's programs is scheduled to be completed before the next academic year on the premises. There will also be sufficient land for a cross country course for the Saints to host home events.

The property is located in Clinton at Harrison Drive and South 14th Street.

Ashford University Community Tennis Center

Bridgepoint Education purchased the former YMCA Tennis Center on 4th Avenue South in Clinton in late May, officially marking a new home facility for the Saints men's and women's tennis programs still scheduled to debut during the 2010-11 academic year.

The facility was built 10 years ago by the Armstrong Curtis Foundation on land owned by the YMCA and then presented the building as a gift to the organization.

Kehl Arena

Kehl (pronounced Keel) Arena (capacity 1,100), located within the Durgin Educational Center, serves as home to Ashford men's and women's basketball and volleyball events as well as an indoor practice facility for the track and field squads. Dedicated in 1998, the Durgin Educational Center houses the Ashford's athletic offices, the Golinvaux Fitness Center/Weight Room and the HyVee Inc. Athletic Training Room, where Saints' student-athletes work with professional staff to maintain peak condition.

Alliant Energy Field

Also home to the Clinton LumberKings, the Seattle Mariners' Class A affiliation, the Saints' baseball team is privileged to use picturesque Alliant Energy Field as one of its home venues during the regular season.

The historic ballpark was built in 1937 and has a capacity of 3,000 fans. Many Major League Baseball players have played at Alliant Energy Field on their way to the professional ranks including all-stars Grady Sizemore (Cleveland), Jason Bay  (New York NL) and Ian Kinsler (Texas).

This year, many first-round selections in the 2009 amateur draft have visited Clinton, including Mariners' shortstop Nick Franklin (27th overall), Los Angeles Angels phenom Mike Trout (25th overall) and hard-throwing St. Louis Cardinals prospect Shelby Miller (19th overall).

The Saints occasionally use Camanche High School as a secondary field if there is a scheduling conflict, with that field located in nearby Camanche, Iowa.

Ericksen Community Center/Emma Young Park

Ashford's softball team plays all regular season home contests at Emma Young Park located within the confines of the Ericksen Community Center in Clinton. The Center serves as a venue for multiple events including youth contests, summer camps and slow pitch softball leagues.
