It is currently used mainly for football matches and is the home stadium of Excelsior, as well as for the women's team. The stadium is able to hold 4,500 people and was built in 1902.[3] It remains one of the smallest stadiums in the Netherlands that is used by a professional football club.[4] The stadium has a stand named after Robin van Persie, who played for the Excelsior youth academy between 1997 and 1999.[5]
