Estádio Romário de Souza Faria

Estádio Romário de Souza Faria is a football stadium in Xerém with a natural grass field and 10,000 seats for spectators. It was designed as a modern sports facility to host professional matches and community events.

The stadium opened on October 4, 2007, replacing an earlier sports facility in the region. Its inaugural match ended in a 1-1 draw between the home team and a major opponent.

Named after a Brazilian football legend, this venue symbolizes local sports development and community pride. It serves as the home ground for the regional club and hosts matches that bring together supporters from the area.

Access is well-organized with ample space for pedestrians and clear areas for visitors to move about. The facilities were built to handle large crowds, so arriving early for major matches is advisable.

Fire safety certification for the full capacity of 10,000 seats was completed in October 2008, as the venue initially operated with only 4,000 seats. This expansion significantly increased the spectator capacity and elevated its standing as a regional sports venue.
