Athletic Facilities at Belen

The athletic facilities at Belen Jesuit complement the school's excellent physical education program and interscholastic sports. The Roberto C. Goizueta Innovation Center includes our beautiful gymnasium with two basketball courts, named Leyva Court, and locker rooms. In the summer, it is home to the summer camp office. The Gian Zumpano Aquatic Center is located on the west side of the campus. The De la Cruz Stadium is where spectators gather to watch soccer matches, football games, and track & field competitions. The scoreboard sits facing the stadium from the north and was made possible by the support of the Fund for Belen. The concession stand and restrooms reside next to the scoreboard. The Hernández Field is used by athletes who play soccer, lacrosse, and football and by track and cross-country runners. At the north end of the campus is the baseball facility, featuring two baseball fields, an indoor hitting facility, and locker rooms.

Our newest addition to the campus is the Roberto Surís Athletic Center, which opened in September 2024. The three-story, nearly 60,000-square-foot building features two workout rooms, a gym, two dozen treadmills, ERG Machines, golf simulators, and much more! A reimagined sports complex incorporating all the athletic facilities is also in development. 

The athletic facilities at Belen Jesuit are top-rate and give our student-athletes all they need to succeed.

Belen Jesuit Preparatory School was founded in 1854 in Havana, Cuba, by Queen Isabel II of Spain.  The task of educating students was assigned to the priests and brothers of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), whose teaching tradition is synonymous with academic excellence and spiritual discipline.  In 1961, the new political regime of Cuba confiscated the school's property and expelled the Jesuit faculty.  The School was re-established in Miami the same year, and over the next decade, continued to grow. Today, Belen Jesuit is situated on a 34-acre site in western Dade County, just minutes away from downtown Miami.
