Stadiumi Gjorgji Kyçyku
Pogradec, Albania
Formerly: Stadiumi Ylli i Kuq
In the background, the city of Pogradec is defined by its apartment blocks and the mountains that close in behind them, setting a boundary for the whole area.
What makes this place distinct is its long association with the local team. Originally called Stadiumi Ylli i Kuq , the venue changed its name in 1992 to honour Gjorgji Kyçyku, a local hero, giving the ground a specific identity in the city’s memory. The playing surface is natural grass, and the capacity is recorded as 10,700, though some accounts suggest it holds fewer spectators.
The stadium is located on Rruga e Stadiumit , a street named after the ground itself. It has also served as a temporary home for other teams, such as Besëlidhja Lezhë , when their own facilities were unavailable, proving its role as a shared resource for the region. The club reached the semi-finals of the Albanian Cup in the 1992–93 season, a period that coincides with the stadium's renaming. There is no official website for the ground, and much of its history is known through football databases and local recollection rather than official records. The track around the pitch remains, a visual echo of its past uses, while the focus has remained on the football matches played on the grass within.
