The Orange Beach Sportsplex is a sports complex in Orange Beach, Alabama that was built in 2001.

The focus of the complex is the 1,500-seat stadium. The stadium has hosted the SEC women's soccer tournament and has completed negotiations to host the tournament through 2020.[2] The facility also hosts the NCAA Division II men's and women's soccer tournaments. In past years, the stadium hosted the now defunct Alabama Lightning of the North American Football League.[3]

Aside from the stadium, the sportsplex is home to baseball, softball, and youth sports leagues.

The city of Orange Beach has announced plans to upgrade lighting on the championship field as part of the tournament contract. [2]
