The Gene Deal Fields features an artificial turf field lined for baseball, softball, lacrosse, soccer and field hockey. The 154,000-square-foot field is the ninth-largest continuous piece of artificial sports turf in the country. The Galliot Family Grandstand and The Howson Family Terrace provide an enhanced spectator experience and outdoor gathering space with ADA accessible ramps. The Killian Cavanaugh Memorial Baseball Field and the softball field include dugouts, batting cages and bullpens, and will soon have additional bleacher seating behind the backstops. There are also two scoreboards. 

Dedicated in 2012, Michael J. Farrell Stadium is a multipurpose stadium that is home to SSA's football, soccer, field hockey, lacrosse, and track and field teams. The stadium includes McKelvy Field (an artificial turf surface), the Posner eight-lane all-weather track, jump pits, home and away grandstands, a press box, and an entrance plaza with ticket and concession booths. State-of-the-art stadium lighting fixtures allow teams to play after dark and provide the perfect "Friday Night Lights" setting.

Home to SSA's ice hockey teams, the Roy McKnight Hockey Center features an NHL-sized ice surface and is regularly regarded as one of the best regulation surfaces in Western Pennsylvania. Having our own on-campus arena means SSA hockey teams have priority ice time for afternoon practices and home games – no fighting for ice time at a community rink halfway across town! SSA's hockey teams enjoy newly renovated boys and girls locker rooms, a video classroom and weight room, all housed within the center. The facility also has two scoreboards, an elite sound system and visiting locker rooms. The center has balcony seating for up to 600 hockey fans.

In the warm weather, after the ice is melted, the center serves as a venue for large school and community events.

A 25-yard lap pool with automatic timing system is home to our highly competitive girls and boys swimming teams. Recent renovations have made this facility even more inviting to the community. A three-tier spectator balcony is the perfect place for fans to watch the excitement of an SSA swim meet.

Mellon Gymnasium is home to the SSA boys and girls basketball teams. The gym's Peter Sauer ’95 Court is named in honor of the late SSA alumnus and Stanford basketball star. It seats up to 600 fans and has six practice hoops. The building also houses Mellon Pool (see above) and the SSA Athletic Department Offices.

Curry Gymnasium is adjacent to Mellon Gymnasium and is used by the entire community for almost any indoor activity, from practices to science experiments. The gym includes bleachers that seat 250 and eight practice hoops. The building is also home to the SSA athletic training office.

The Wiegand Squash Courts are home to the SSA squash teams. The facility includes three international-sized squash courts, locker rooms and a two-tiered balcony for viewing all of the squash action.

The Kassling Tennis Courts are home to SSA's highly competitive tennis teams. The complex includes six tennis courts and home and away bleachers for 80 spectators. The Lower Tennis Courts complex includes four courts and is mainly used for practices.

Multiple grass fields sit on the edge of the Senior School campus at 650 Riding Meadow Road, just down the road from the Middle School campus. The fields are used by lacrosse, field hockey and soccer teams for practices and games, and include bleachers for fans.

Shady Side's cross country teams have their own on-campus course, which winds its way in and around the athletic fields and hills of the Senior School campus.
