Alumni Coliseum, officially Bob Green Field at Alumni Coliseum, is a 2,000 seat stadium located in Butte, Montana.[1] It is the home of the NAIA Montana Tech Orediggers college football team. In 2013, a new artificial turf field was installed and named after legendary Montana Tech football coach Bob Green.[2]
It is the former home of the Butte Copper Kings (now Grand Junction Rockies) Pioneer League franchise. The Copper Kings shared the stadium with the Montana Tech team until their demise, as well as the local American Legion baseball team until a new field was built for that specific purpose. The grandstands that were used for baseball have been removed and replaced with expansions to the Montana Tech campus.
