In addition to high school sports, Pennington Field was previously used by the DFW Tornados of the Premier Development League from 2004-2010, the American Eightman Football League (AEFL), and the Red River Bowl for NJCAA.

Pennington Field does not have a track around the field, partly because the city of Bedford has an ordinance requiring all tracks to be open to the public. The result is that the seats are closer to the sidelines, creating a more intimate spectator experience.
