The Grande Communications Stadium is a 15,000-seat (18,000 capacity) stadium located in Midland, Texas. The stadium plays host to the American football and soccer teams for both Robert E. Lee High School and Midland High School, the Midland/Odessa Sockers franchise in the USL Premier Development League, and the West Texas Drillers adult tackle football team in the Minor Professional Football League(MPFL) as well as the West Texas Pride Minor League Football team of the Rio Grande Football League (RGFL)
The stadium is part of the Scharbauer Sports Complex, together with the 5,000-seat Security Bank Ballpark.
The reason behind the stadium's rather large size for a high school venue is the incredible passion for high school football in Texas. Ratliff Stadium in neighboring Odessa is another large high school stadium, seating nearly 20,000.
