Kaalheide in Kerkrade

Opened:    1950
Seats:        21.500
Team:        Roda JC

Kaalheide is the ground where I have been visiting most matches. It was close to where I used to live. Despite the team's great results of the last couple of years, Roda JC isn't attracting a big crowd. Roda JC decided to build a new ground. The building started in 1999 and is finished right in time for the 2000-2001 season. For the start of this first season in the new ground, Roda JC sold already 11,500 year tickets.
