Since its inception in 2007, the Lake Erie football team has played its home games at Jack Britt Memorial Stadium, which is also the home of the Harvey High School Red Raiders. "The Britt" hosted the first varsity football contest in Lake Erie College history on Aug. 28, 2009 against Gannon University. Current seating capacity for the stadium is 2,500, with standing-room capacity over 3,000.

Both institutions have partnered with the City of Painesville to update the stadium. Renovations in 2008 included $100,000 worth of updated locker room and training facilities by the College and an updated press box, paved parking area and updated restroom facilities completed by the City.

In early 2010, the partnership announced plans for the installation of a synthetic playing surface on the current site, which will allow for increased usage of the facility and provided Storm student-athletes with one of the finest playing surfaces in the country.  The new turf, a Prograss Monofilament surface with sand and rubber infill, was installed in the Summer of 2010 and starting in the 2010-11 season, the men's and women's soccer and lacrosse teams will now be able to call Britt Stadium home.
