Bjølsen kunstgress

There is nothing to see in the photographs that belongs here. Neither relates to the facility in question. It is not this pitch.

The ground is defined by its function rather than its appearance. It is an artificial turf pitch situated in the Bjølsen area of Oslo, within the Voldsløkka sports complex. The surface is synthetic. The pitch measures 100 by 64 metres.

There are no stands or covered seating areas for spectators. The capacity is recorded as 1,000, but the reality is far stripped back. It is a working pitch for the local clubs, primarily Sagene IF and Gamle Oslo FK.

It lacks the grandeur of the city’s professional grounds, serving instead as a practical base for amateur football in the capital. The floodlights provide 100 lux of illumination, enough for evening training or matches when the light fades early. It is a quiet corner of Oslo, unremarkable from the outside, but a necessary part of the city’s sporting infrastructure.
