Hefner Soccer Complex (also known as Hefner Stadium, and Hefner Fields) is a large group of soccer fields located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It is named for David J. Hefner, deceased son of local entrepreneur and Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW) donor, William J. Hefner and his wife, Bonnie L. Hefner.

The complex consists of 14 fields highlighted by a 2,000-seat stadium. The complex is used by IPFW's soccer teams and the Fort Wayne Fever of the USL Premier Development League.
