History[edit]

See also: MOSiR Stadium (Stalowa Wola)

The previous stadium located at this site was known as the "Stadion Miejskiego Ośrodka Sportu i Rekreacji" (MOSiR Stadium). It was among the first structures erected in Stalowa Wola in the late 1930s, with a maximum capacity of 12,000 spectators.[6]

Construction work for the new stadium commenced in June 2011 with the demolition of the stand along Hutnicza Street. Currently, a covered stand with a capacity of 1,430 seats occupies its place. In 2016, recognized as the commencement year for the Subcarpathian Football Center, the demolition and construction of the west stand began.[7] The planned capacity of the stadium was to be 10,000 places. Ultimately, it has 3,764.

The Subcarpathian Football Center opened in 2020. In the first match at the new stadium, on 29 February 2020, Stal drew 0–0 against Bytovia Bytów (it was also the inauguration of artificial lighting). During the 2020–21 season, Stal Stalowa Wola was supposed to share the stadium with the I liga side Resovia, because their home stadium in Rzeszów was being renovated then.[8] On October 23, 2020, the latter team decided to play at the Stal Rzeszów Municipal Stadium.[9]

In April 2021, the stadium hosted the regional Polish Cup final – Stal Stalowa Wola 0–0 (p. 6–5) Siarka Tarnobrzeg game.[10]

On 1 December 2023, the stadium hosted a 2023–24 UEFA Women's Nations League fixture in which Poland defeated Ukraine 1–0, securing promotion to League A.[11]

National team tournaments[edit]

In March and April 2020, the stadium was scheduled to host matches of the UEFA Development Tournament. The participating teams were to include the Poland U-16, Venezuela U-16, Iceland U-16, and Iran U-16. However, on 18 March 2020, the tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated epidemiological threat in Poland.[12]
