История и реконструкция
Матадом, в отличие от многих других традиционных стадионов, расположен в Редвуд-холле, где проводятся многочисленные занятия по кинезиологии для Калифорнийского университета в Нортридже. Вопреки названию, Редвуд-холл, и, соответственно, Матадом, вовсе не является куполом – крыша плоская. Матадом был построен в 1962 году и официально открыт 30 ноября того же года. Свое название он получил в начале 1980-х годов, когда Лиза Нехус Саксон, репортер газеты Los Angeles Daily News, в шутку использовала этот термин в репортаже об игре. За годы своего существования вместимость Матадома неоднократно менялась. До землетрясения в Нортридже в 1994 году Матадом мог вместить более 3000 зрителей. Рекорд посещаемости составил 3106 человек на товарищеском матче мужской сборной США по волейболу против мужской сборной Японии, который состоялся 2 ноября 1990 года, до землетрясения. После землетрясения верхние ряды сидений были демонтированы, чтобы освободить место для учебных классов в Редвуд-холле, и возведены стены, отделяющие Матадом от этих новых аудиторий. Другие модернизации включали установку совершенно нового покрытия в 1996 году (с перепроектированием в 2001 году), подвесного табло над центральной линией в 1997 году и кресел с мягкими спинками в 1998 году. В 2014 году Матадом был отремонтирован, и вместимость увеличена до 2400 мест, которые были утрачены в результате землетрясения в Нортридже в 1994 году.
The Matadome, unlike many other traditional stadia, is located within Redwood Hall, which hosts many kinesiology classes for Cal State Northridge. Contrary to the name, Redwood Hall, and by default the Matadome, is not a dome at all – the roof is flat. The Matadome was completed in 1962 and was officially opened on 30 November of the same year. It got its name in the early 1980s, when Lisa Nehus Saxon, a reporter for the Los Angeles Daily News, playfully used the term in a game story. The capacity of the Matadome has changed throughout the years. Before the 1994 Northridge earthquake, the Matadome had a capacity of over 3,000. The record attendance was 3,106 for a United States men's national volleyball team exhibition against Japan men's national volleyball team set on 2 November 1990, which was prior to the earthquake. After the earthquake, the upper section seats were removed to create more classroom space for Redwood Hall, and walls were put up to separate the Matadome from these new classrooms. Other renovations include the installation of a completely new floor in 1996 (with a redesigning in 2001), a drop down scoreboard above half court in 1997, and chair backed bleacher seats in 1998. In 2014, the Matadome was renovated and seating capacity was increased to 2,400 seats. The seats were previously lost due to the 1994 Northridge earthquake. blockquote|We’re a division I program with a junior high or a YMCA gym.|Neeta Sreekanth, 2008–2009, women's basketball|Daily Sundial Not surprisingly, the head coach for the men's basketball team believes the Matadome may hinder Northridge's athletic programs.

Неудивительно, что главный тренер мужской баскетбольной команды считает, что Матадом может препятствовать развитию спортивных программ Нортриджа. Не обманывайтесь названием «Матадом». На самом деле это «Мата-зал». – Бобби Брасуэлл, 1996–2013, главный тренер мужской баскетбольной команды, The Press Enterprise.

До открытия Matadome мужская баскетбольная команда Cal State Northridge Matadors играла свои домашние матчи в расположенной поблизости средней школе Granada Hills Charter High School. Они играют в Matadome с момента его открытия в 1962 году, и к ним присоединились женская баскетбольная команда, а также мужские и женские волейбольные команды. Помимо спортивных соревнований Northridge, в Matadome также проходил мужской баскетбольный турнир конференции Big Sky в 2001 году. Matadome также использовался в качестве съемочной площадки для фильмов "The Karate Kid" (1984) и "National Lampoon's Van Wilder" (2002).
Before the Matadome opened, the Cal State Northridge Matadors men's basketball team played their home games at nearby Granada Hills Charter High School. They've played at the Matadome since its opening in 1962 and has been joined by the women's basketball team, as well as the men's and women's volleyball teams. In addition to Northridge athletics, the Matadome has also hosted the 2001 Big Sky Conference men's basketball tournament. For non athletic events, the Matadome has been used as a setting for The Karate Kid (1984) and National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002).
