宇都宮市サッカー場, Municipal soccer stadium in Utsunomiya, Japan
The Utsunomiya City Soccer Field is a municipal training facility with a synthetic turf pitch measuring 119 by 80 meters and multiple spectator areas for watching sessions. A separate natural grass sub-field is available alongside the main ground for specialized training work.
The facility was established in 1995 and underwent major renovation in 2008 when the original dirt surface was replaced with modern synthetic turf. This transformation significantly improved playing conditions.
The facility connects local soccer fans with the professional game, as it serves as a training base where people can watch athletes prepare for matches and tournaments.
The facility typically opens at 9:00 AM and closes at 5:00 PM on most days, though extended hours until 7:00 PM are offered during warmer months from May through September. Check current availability before visiting, as the grounds are regularly in use for team training sessions.
The facility is primarily designed as a training ground for Tochigi SC rather than a traditional match stadium, giving it a different character than large competitive venues. Visitors can observe the daily rhythm of practice sessions instead of being caught in game-day activity.
