Background
Former Malaysian football teams that used the stadium as their home ground are Felda United, PDRM and PLUS FC and Selangor. The stadium has a capacity of 18,000 people. The stadium has been closed since July 2011 due to the City Hall's reluctance to repair the pitch. Starting in 2012, this stadium has been used for Rugby matches. It is used for the first match of the 2013 Media Prima 6 Regions, between Kelab Rakan Muda Malaysia vs Singapore Cricket Club. This stadium was renovated several years ago. It is expected to re-open with a new 18,000 all-seated capacity.[3]
