Sam Nujoma Stadium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sam Nujoma Stadium (also called the Sam Nujoma Soccer Stadium or SNSS[1]) is a football (soccer) stadium in Katutura, Windhoek, Namibia. The stadium holds 10,300 and was finished in 2005.[2] It is named after the former Namibian president Sam Nujoma.[1]
As of 2021[update] the stadium is not in use due to safety concerns from "structural defects". The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has decommissioned the stadium in 2021 for it being sub-standard, and no other Namibian stadium meets CAF's requirements. As a result, international games of the Namibia national football team will have to be played abroad.[3]
