The Hiukka Stadium is located in the centre of Sotkamo, right on the shore of Sapsojärvi. The former athletics field has been used almost exclusively as a pesäpallo haven since the mid-1990s. The field is known for its purple artificial grass and Hiukka's beach, where the ball can be thrown by mistake.^[1]
