Eeshoke Chula Chula FC Open New 20,000-Capacity Stadium
Eeshoke Chula Chula FC have reached another important milestone following the official inauguration of their new 20,000-capacity Chula Chula Stadium in Helao Nafidi on Saturday afternoon.
The stadium was officially opened by Her Excellency President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, marking a significant moment for the club and the local football community.
The new stadium means Chula Chula can now officially host their home matches in Helao Nafidi, ending their previous arrangement of playing home fixtures in Oshakati.
The club marked the historic occasion with a friendly against Mighty Gunners, securing a 1–0 victory in the opening match at their new home.
The development comes as Eeshoke Chula Chula FC continue to establish themselves as one of Namibia’s competitive football clubs. Last season, the team finished runners-up, narrowly missing out on the league title.
With a new home ground and last season’s strong campaign behind them, Chula Chula will be looking to build on that momentum as they enter the new season, while their supporters in Helao Nafidi can now look forward to watching the team compete on home soil.
The inauguration of the stadium is therefore more than just the opening of a new sporting facility, it marks the beginning of a new chapter for Eeshoke Chula Chula FC and football in Helao Nafidi.
