Mestna graba
Ormož, Slovenia
The closest thing to a landmark is the skate park that opened in 2012, which suggests the area has moved with the times even if the pitch remains simple.
Inside, the capacity is a matter of opinion. Europlan Online counts 1,200 seats, while another source insists on 1,000. The difference is not worth arguing over. The surface is natural grass, and it looks after itself. There are no floodlights to extend the evening, and no athletics track to create a barrier between the spectators and the players.
The ground has seen a higher turnout than usual. In the club's early years, during the season when the rain never seemed to stop, 1,500 people gathered to watch the match. More recently, it has filled to 800 for a playoff against Rače.
The building does not have a name of its own, other than the park it shares with the skateboarders. It is not a temple of football, but it is a place where the game is played without spectacle. The town knows its own ground, and that is enough. The history is not written in books, but in the mud on the boots of the players and the faces of the people who came out to watch.
