Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium, Multi-purpose sports venue in White City, London, England
Description
The Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium is a multi-purpose sports venue in White City, west London, serving primarily as home to a football club. Four covered stands with two tiers each surround the grass pitch and together hold around 18 400 spectators.
History
The football club moved here in 1917 after their previous ground was taken over for military use during the First World War. In the 1980s, this became the first British professional football ground to receive an artificial pitch, though it lasted only a few years.
Culture
The stadium received its current name in 2019 to honor Kiyan Prince, a young Queens Park Rangers academy player who died protecting another student.
Practical
The venue sits near three underground stations (White City, Wood Lane and Shepherd's Bush) and is also served by several bus routes. On match days, streets around the entrance fill with fans hours before kickoff.
Did you know?
In 2019, the ground was renamed to honor Kiyan Prince, an academy youth player who died at age 15 in an altercation outside his school. His father later founded an anti-violence foundation whose name now stands above the stands.
