Mohammedan Sporting Ground (also known as Mohammedan Sporting–Howrah Union Ground)[3] is a multi-use stadium in Kolkata, West Bengal.[4] It is used mostly for football matches and is mainly the home stadium of Mohammedan.[5] The ground has a natural grass turf.[6][7] Having facilities such as commentary boxes for radio and TV, press box and air conditioned changing rooms, the stadium holds 15,000 people.[2] It is also the home ground of Howrah Union,[8] which it shares with Mohammedan.

About

[edit]

The stadium has galleries on three sides and a rampart on the fourth side. The north side gallery is the member's gallery. The east side and south side galleries are still made of a temporary iron structure and are designated for non-member supporters. The playing pitch is about 100 x 60 meters.[citation needed] The club tent and main office are located adjacent to the stadium. The club tent consists of a maintained lawn, with benches.
