Selebi-Phikwe Stadium

The ground is known locally as Sam Sono Stadium, a name adopted in 2017 after the mining group took the naming rights. Before that, it was simply the Central Stadium, or the Selebi-Phikwe Stadium, though the older titles have faded from the daily conversation. The capacity holds 9,000 spectators.

Floodlights are fitted, but the history of the place is harder to pin down. The year it opened is not recorded in the available sources, nor is the name of the builder. The stadium has lived alongside that change.

The stands have seen the senior national team play two friendly matches against Zimbabwe in this part of the country. One ended in a loss in 2003, the other a clean win seven years later. These games are the only international fixtures remembered here, while the local marathons and junior training sessions fill the quieter days. FC Satmos has also taken turns on the turf, though Nico United hold the pitch more firmly in the top flight. There is no official website for the venue, and no street address beyond the town limits.
