Stadionul Flacăra – stadium description

Called traditionally the Petromidia stadium after nearby refinery, this stadium was opened in 1960 for local industrial football club. It stands literally between the town of Navodari’s last residential buildings and the refinery.

There are two stands, though land embankment surrounds the field entirely. The main grandstand is small, but has a very distinctive administrative building. Most fans are seated on the opposite (east) side though, including the away contingent.

In 1990s it was converted into an all-seater with national colours of Romania represented in the seats. However after local team was dissolved, a new one, Săgeata, moved here in 2010. They’ve repainted the stadium in white-blue to match their crest.
