Ingulets
The ground in Petrove exists because an agricultural business built it. Agrofirma Pyatykhatska put up the stadium at the initiative of club president Oleksandr Povoroznyuk, and for a time the club carried the firm's name too — AF Pyatykhatska — before it became FC Ingulets Petrove. The first official match was played here on 13 July 2014.
Petrove is a small place in Kirovohrad Oblast, and the stadium was built to a scale that matches it. When Ingulets drew Volyn Lutsk in the Ukrainian Cup on 22 August 2015, the ground recorded its best attendance. Four years later, a visit from Metalist 1925 brought 951 spectators through the turnstiles.
Confusion follows the name. Match reports have called the ground Inhulets-Arena, sometimes attaching Povoroznyuk's name to it, but that title belongs properly to a separate facility in Volodymyrivka, where the reserve team plays. The original ground opened simply as Inhulets Stadium.
The club also began work on a larger arena, planned between 2018 and 2020 with permanent floodlighting, and that project has since reached use. What has not happened at Petrove is European football: Ingulets have never hosted a UEFA tie here, nor a Ukrainian Cup final. The grass is natural, and the address is vul. Zlahody.
