Since 1959, James G. Pressly Stadium at Percy Beard Track has served as the outdoor home of the Gator track and field program.

This multipurpose stadium was named the James G. Pressly Stadium at Percy Beard Track in the spring of 2004 following a generous gift from James G. Pressly, a West Palm Beach attorney and a 1972 graduate of the UF College of Law. The track has long held the name Percy Beard Track after the former Gator head track & field coach Percy Beard, who guided the Gators from 1937 to 1964.

A $4.1 million renovation project was completed in 2024.
