UJ Soweto Stadium / Eldorado Secondary
Johannesburg, South Africa
UJ Soweto Stadium sits on the edge of the Diepkloof district, set back on the edge of the University of Johannesburg campus. The official card lists a capacity of 1,500, but the structure has hosted events for significantly larger crowds in the past, including the 2023 Cosafa Women's Championship group stages.
The ground occupies a space on Chris Hani Road that is shared with other campus entities, though it is distinct from the nearby Eldorado Secondary School. It is a multi-purpose venue, but football remains its primary focus. The pitch is used for athletics as well, and the facility has served as a training base for clubs such as Jomo Sono. The surface type is not confirmed in available records, but the stadium has hosted FIFA-level matches. The annual Soweto Marathon also utilises the ground, indicating its role extends beyond club football.
Ownership rests with the University of Johannesburg, which manages the facility alongside other sports halls and fields. The exact date of construction is not established in public sources, nor is the identity of the original builder. It is located in the Soweto area of Johannesburg, South Africa.
