Nowgong Sports Club Ground or Nurul Amin Stadium is a multi purpose stadium in Nagaon, Assam. The ground is mainly used for organizing matches of football, cricket and other sports. It hosts the prestigious Independence Day Cup Football tournament every year in August and September, in which most of the teams of national repute participate.

The stadium has hosted eight Ranji Trophy matches[1] from 1964 when Assam cricket team played against Bihar cricket team[2] until 1989 but since then the stadium has hosted non-first-class matches.[3] The stadium is named after Nurul Amin, who was a renowned sports administrator in Assam.
