Fran Rish Stadium is a football/track stadium located on the grounds of Richland High School in Richland, Washington. Currently, it is the home of the football teams of the two high schools in the city, the Richland Bombers and the Hanford High School Falcons, although the Falcons have a separate track facility at their high school. Neither school uses the stadium for soccer matches (Bomber Field, Richland High's soccer field, is located near Carmichael Middle School. Hanford's soccer team plays on their school grounds).

The stadium was named after Fran Rish, a legendary football and baseball coach of Richland High School. Rish died in early February of 2006.
