Salah Al Din Stadium, Football stadium in Tikrit, Iraq
Salah Al Din Stadium is a modern football venue in Tikrit with a grass playing field and stands positioned for clear views of the action. The facility includes two separate training grounds equipped with running tracks for players to prepare for matches.
The stadium began construction in 2018 as part of an Iraqi government program to upgrade sports facilities across the country. It was built to strengthen football infrastructure and provide local clubs with modern venues for their teams.
The venue will serve as the primary home ground for Salahaddin FC, replacing their previous location at Tikrit Stadium.
The venue sits on the outskirts of Tikrit alongside the main highway connecting Mosul and Baghdad, making it easy to locate. Visitors should consider local road conditions and travel arrangements when planning a trip, especially from other parts of the country.
The grounds contain a 75-room hotel integrated into the facility, making it a comprehensive sports complex that offers lodging. This combined design means visitors and teams can find accommodation and sporting facilities in the same location.
