Imperial Fields, Football stadium in Mitcham, London, United Kingdom
Imperial Fields is a football stadium in Mitcham, south London, and the home ground of Tooting & Mitcham United. The ground has a capacity of 3,500 with 612 seats, and it also hosts other clubs and community events.
Imperial Fields opened in 2002, when Tooting & Mitcham United moved from their old ground at Sandy Lane. Since then, it has been used by several clubs, including Chelsea Ladies and Kingstonian, and it hosted the first-ever FA Women's Super League match in 2011.
The stadium is a local hub where fans gather on match days, and the stands carry the colours and banners of the home club. The main stand, with its rows of seats, is where regular supporters sit and where the club's history is displayed.
The stadium is in the London Borough of Merton, with entrances on the main road and near the train station. Visitors should check the fixture list in advance, as the ground is mainly open on match days and for scheduled events.
The record attendance at Imperial Fields was set in 2018 by Dulwich Hamlet, with a crowd of 3,321 for a play-off final. The ground also hosted the first-ever FA Women's Super League match, which Arsenal Ladies won 1-0 against Chelsea Ladies.
