Denig Stadium is a soccer stadium on the island nation of Nauru. It is located in Nibok and has a capacity of 1,000 spectators.[1] The stadium is at times unusable as it is also used as a storage area for shipping containers.[2]
History
The stadium hosted soccer in Nauru until 2004, the last time an organized league was played on the island.[3] The six-team league which played out of the stadium was dissolved after the foreign workers of the Nauru Phosphate Corporation left the country.[2] The Nauru national soccer team played a friendly against refugees from the Nauru Regional Processing Centre at the stadium on 20 June 2014 in celebration of World Refugee Day.[4][5]
The stadium was proposed as a host venue in Nauru's unsuccessful bid to host the 2017 Pacific Mini Games. As part of the proposal, the stadium was to be resurfaced for rugby training.[6]
