Sportpark De Heikant – stadium description

The town of Groesbeek in the suburbs of Nijmegen has two known stadium. The northern one belongs to Achilles ’29, who – as the name suggests – played their first game here back in 1929. The team hasn’t moved to another location since, though the role of main field rotated between two local pitches. Currently the western one is primary, boasting two modest grandstands and some terracing.

Maximum capacity of 4,500 is only an estimate, because crowds of this size aren’t seen here. However, on various occasions well over 2,000 people attend games. Largest recorded crowd to date (3,886) gathered in 2008 for the local derby with De Treffers from southern part of town.
