The SFU softball team had been without a home field since its inception in 1990 until Keith & Betty Beedie, through the Beedie Foundation, constructed Beedie Field in 2010. The $1.5 million facility is the jewel of the Athletics Department and considered the best softball facility in Canada. It enables female softball athletes to remain in Canada to get a world-class education and compete against NCAA competition—while playing in a first-class facility.
 
Beedie Field officially opened March 25, 2011 with a game won by SFU 4-1 over Northwest Nazarene University. It was the first NCAA conference softball game played outside of the United States.
