Sohar Regional Sports Complex

The Sohar Regional Sports Complex is a significant sporting venue in Al Batinah North, though it is not the town’s namesake ground. Located within Sohar Park in the Al Hambar district, it sits apart from the smaller Sohar Club Stadium, which remains the primary home for Sohar SC. This complex serves as a shared home for Saham SC and Al-Khaburah, both based in the nearby towns of the same region. The stadium has a capacity of 19,000 spectators, a figure consistently cited by Wikipedia, StadiumDB, Transfermarkt, and Soccer Wiki, correcting earlier records that suggested 10,000. The playing surface is natural grass, confirmed by Europlan. The stadium is managed by the Sohar Municipality, which does not maintain a dedicated website for the complex itself; the municipality's official site is www.sm.gov.om. No specific opening or inauguration year was found in available sources, though Sohar Club was founded in 1972. A significant change occurred in 2010 when the stadium was converted to an all-seater facility. There is no evidence of other major rebuilds or renovations with associated costs in the searched records. The venue's coordinates are 24°20'05"N 56°44'35"E.
