Sports Odisha

The Kalinga Stadium is a multi-purpose international sports complex in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. Its foundation stone was laid by Biju Patnaik in 1978. It is best known as the home ground of the Indian Super League club Odisha FC since its inception in 2019. It was the home ground of the I-League club Indian Arrows from 2018 until 2022. It is situated in the heart of Bhubaneswar near Nayapalli area. It has facilities for athletics, football, field hockey, tennis, table tennis, basketball, volleyball, wall climbing and swimming.[5][6][7] Other features of the stadium include an 8-lane synthetic athletics track, high performance centres, and India's first Olympic standard pink and blue water-based AstroTurf.[8]

History[edit | edit source]

The Government of Odisha gained widespread reputation for the successful execution of the "90-Day Challenge" for hosting the 2017 Asian Athletics Championships when the former venue Ranchi backed out of hosting the event 3 months prior.[9] The city of Bhubaneswar has been termed as the 'Sports Capital of India' for hosting a large number as well as a wide variety of sporting events and nurturing future talents.[10][11][12] As per a 2021 survey, Bhubaneswar was ranked 3rd among top 5 cities of India in terms of sports ecosystem and ability to host mega sporting events.[13]

Interior of the stadium with running track

The stadium had been chosen as a venue for the 2020 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup which was later postponed to 2021 but was cancelled due to COVID-19 pandemic and later shifted to 2022 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. It was initially chosen as a venue for the 2022 AFC Women's Asia Cup in 2021 but was later dropped off.
