Emek Haarazim
Jerusalem, Israel
Formerly: Kraft Family Stadium, Kraft Family Sports Campus
The Emek HaArazim stadium sits within a broader sports campus in Jerusalem, built on land that once held a very different kind of game. The site was home to Kraft Family Stadium, a non-regulation American football ground funded by Robert Kraft in 2000, which stood for many years as the only venue of its kind in the country.
The stadium itself is a compact structure with a capacity of 1,000 seats. It lacks undersoil heating, and the playing surface is natural grass. Beitar Nordia Jerusalem play their home matches here.
The address is Zeev Tur Sinai 1, Jerusalem. The site retains the name Kraft Family Sports Campus alongside the original Emek Harazim title. The capacity figure of 1,000 is the one recorded by Europlan-Online; a claim of 65,000 is an error conflating the campus with a larger venue. The venue opened under its current configuration in 2017, though the original opening year of the broader sports center facilities is not definitively established separate from that development.
