Aho-Niva
Start with the arithmetic that makes this ground unusual: the village of Dolbizna counts around 350 residents. On 9 May 2023, when the rebuilt ground staged its first official First League match, 390 people came through the gate. The visitors were Dnepr from Mogilev, and the game finished 3:3.
The pitch exists because someone decided it should. It began as waste ground, sown with grass, then fitted with goals and benches; the surface is still natural turf. The club that plays on it, Niva, was founded in 2005 and has never changed its name. The ground has. It was simply Niva until the 2023 reconstruction, carried out to meet First League requirements, after which it took the name Agro-Niva from the agricultural company that backs the club and whose premises the ground sits on. The address given in directories — 80 Dzerzhinsky Street — is the company's address as much as the stadium's.
Cup football brings the outside world in. Belarusian Cup ties have put Vysshaya Liga sides on this turf, and the club's director has said that visits from opponents such as Gomel, Naftan, Torpedo-BELAZ and Isloch fill more than half the ground. Those matches do not always reward the hosts. In 2025, Isloch left Dolbizna with a 4:0 win.
