Stadion Miejski w Szczecinku – stadium description

When it was built in 1999, it was the town’s largest project since regime change in Poland. And over the following years it was also the best stadium in the region. Even if it seems modest now, at that time (when almost no town in Poland had a modern stadium), the concrete stands with 1,500 seats (600 covered) were quite something!

Central part of the east stand houses all sporting facilities, while north end of the stadium houses offices of two local clubs (Darzbór and Wielim), both separated by main entrance gate. Since 2012 the gate is decorated with the name of Kazimierz Czesław Lis, famous coach working with local players for 50 years.

Perhaps the most fascinating part is the west side of the stadium. We don’t mean the temporary tubular stands and speaker box, but the fact that shores of Lake Trzesiecko are just 20 meters away from the sideline!
