Estadio José Tomás Silva, Football stadium in Virgen del Huerto, Asunción, Paraguay.
The Estadio José Tomás Silva is a football stadium with a grass field and concrete stands that hold around 2,000 spectators. The facility also includes a modern gymnasium that was added to the complex in 2013.
The stadium was completed in 1970 at its current location after the club had used temporary playing fields for many years. This construction marked an important milestone in establishing a permanent home for Sportivo Ameliano.
Local supporters call this venue La Paila and gather here regularly to cheer for Sportivo Ameliano during league matches. The nickname shows the strong bond between the club and the community.
The venue is located on Calle Diego de Silva y Velázquez in the Virgen del Huerto neighborhood. This central location makes it accessible to spectators from different areas of the city.
A severe storm in December 2015 caused major damage to the facility's infrastructure and required extensive repairs. The venue was rebuilt and improved after this event.
