Stade Lesdiguières

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stade Lesdiguières is a multi use stadium in Grenoble, France. The stadium holds 12,000. It is the home of the FC Grenoble union club. The Stadium is made up of 5 stands, the largest of which is the Tribune Présidentielle to the south. The Tribune Tennis is on the east side, so called because it is next to a tennis club, and is the only stand which is uncovered. On the north side there are the Tribune Nord and Tribune Alberto stands, which lie adjacent to each other. The Tribune Alberto is home to the away supporters, as well as some home fans. The last stand is the Tribune Finet, which is home to the noisiest fans of Grenoble Foot, and they have their own newsletter especially for the stand.

The stadium has been replaced by the Stade des Alpes in 2008 for football venues.

It hosted a match between France and Fiji at the 1991 Rugby World Cup.
