Stade Daniel Leclercq
Avion, France
The stadium in Avion sits quietly away from the main lights. It opened in 2021. The ground is part of the Centre Sportif La Gaillette complex, a training site as much as a match-day venue.
The capacity is a modest 2,000. On the day it was inaugurated, the draw brought together former players of RC Lens and LOSC. The occasion was marked by the presence of Patricia Leclercq, the widow of the man whose name the stadium bears.
Visitors walking up 33 rue Arthur Lamendin will find a ground that has seen recent upgrades. The lighting meets E3 standards, and the pitch has passed conformity tests recorded between 2020 and 2023. The stadium does not compete with Stade Bollaert-Delelis for attention; it complements it.
The address is in the 62210 postcode, a detail that anchors the ground in the Pas-de-Calais department. It does not shout; it waits for the players to arrive.
