This venue opened in 1965 originally built for hockey events during the 1966 Asian Games before being adapted for football matches. The site later received its current name to honor a former Physical Education Department director.
In 1983, the stadium received its name to honor Naga Devahastin na Ayudhya, former Acting Director-General of Physical Education Department.

The grounds once hosted a notable boxing title defense bout in 1991 featuring a WBA champion competing against an international challenger. This event demonstrated the venue's role in hosting diverse sports beyond football.
