W.T. "Dub" Robinson Stadium is a former tennis facility located on the campus of Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, LA. The facility, built in 1976, served as the home of the LSU Tigers and LSU Lady Tigers tennis teams from 1976–2014. The stadium had a seating capacity of 550. It was named in honor of former standout head coach W.T. "Dub" Robinson, a coach that elevated the LSU tennis program to national prominence.[1] In 2015, the facility was replaced by the LSU Tennis Complex.

The facility provided six varsity tennis courts with an individual scoreboard on every court plus an additional six practice courts. The stadium also offered the Tigers and Lady Tigers state-of-the-art locker rooms, a meeting room, players lounge, media room and equipment room.[2]

W.T. “Dub” Robinson Stadium was the site for both the 2007 SEC Tennis Championships and NCAA Regionals and was also home of the 2009 NCAA Regionals.[1]
