The Roegrow Grass Patch
Age - 71 years
Capacity - as many people as can stand around it (about 3000)
Club: Roegrow Athletic
Infamous for hosting the Field Hockey World Cup with many "funny" incidents, the grass patch has recently been improved, and people generally don't let their dogs out there anymore. However, it's still a pretty poor pitch, and no stands are expected to be built for the World Cup - other stadiums need the money.

Harewood Ground
Age - 38 years
Capacity - 26,000
Club: Harewood F.C.
The Harewood Ground has recently undergone major improvements, and it is now an all-seater stadium with plenty of facilities. As a small capacity stadium, it is unlikely to have a lot of games in the tournament, but it has atmosphere and a certain football culture seen in few cities of Cockbill Street.

Vimesbairn Cricket Ground
Age - 102 years
Capacity - 81,000
Club: CSCT County Cricket, Rats (national cricket team), Vimesbairn Athletic
The Vimesbairn Cricket Ground is a well-established stadium, used for cricket matches since the beginning of sports in Cockbill Street. Among others, it has hosted the final of the Kelwanese Cricket Championships, and several CS Cup finals in football. The county cricket league in Cockbill Street will be scheduled so that no matches for CSCT will be played here while the World Cup is going on.

K'haz'bak K'ruz'ba D'gazh'dukh
Age - 74 years
Capacity - 94,000
Club: K'haz'bak K'druz'ba
The major stadium of the K'haz'bak K'ruz'ba club, this stadium has seen many tense league fights between them and Vimesbairn United. Although not having any international experience, the stadium has seen frequent match-ups between the Dwarfs v the Trolls - the classic all-star match of the Cockbill Street league. Security is obviously on top in these matches, and will not be a problem here. Hence, the most "tense" matches will be arranged in this stadium.

Northset County Cricket Ground (Chesham)
Age - 18 years
Capacity - 62,000
Club: Northset County Cricket, Chesham Rangers
Another cricket ground, this stadium was recently built to celebrate Northset's county championship (their old ground had a capacity of 8,000). Second division side Chesham Rangers also play here, but usually on Wednesday afternoons. Again, of course, Northset matches will be rescheduled, and due to the huge amount of stadia in this cup, this should not be a problem. The Northset CCC was also a venue for the Kelwanese Cricket Championships.

Jotneheim Park
Age - 91 years
Capacity - 20,000
Club: Jotneheim Mountains AFC

It too has hosted a number of Dwarfs v Trolls match-ups. It will also be used for "tense" match-ups, but mainly for smaller teams playing each other.

Thatcher Road, Upperborough
Age - 48 years
Capacity - 34,000

Perhaps not with the best facilities, but this stadium is a reasonably good one. Its major club, Upperborough FC, has stayed in the Cockbill Street Main League for thirty years, and is one of the better teams in the league. Their stadium is a traditional one, and ten years ago Upperborough FC invested in seats for everybody. This picture was very recently taken, and it shows the stadium from above.

http://www.geocities.com/versionizer/sls-relekhati.jpg
Sen-La-Sa~o Relekhati is perhaps not the best club in the first Rejistanian league, but surely it is the most solvent club. The stadium, which is the biggest in whole Rejistania, was finished on exactly the date when Sen-La-Sa~o was relegated (that's the reason why it has the name 'Sen-La-Sa~o Promotion').

Hanin Sekhika Stadium, KaMaRi kali
Capacity 99,000
http://www.geocities.com/versionizer/hanin-sekhika.jpg
The Hanin Sekhika Stadium is the home of the most successfull club in the North-Mintanian first league, they qualified 10 times for the playoffs but are yet to win it.

Hanin is the name of a suburb of KaMaRi kali, which was an independent city when the club was founded.
Matix Veran Stadium, Matix kali
Capacity 80,300
http://www.geocities.com/versionizer/matix-veran.jpg

Hetkali Hetaki Stadium, Hetkali
Capacity 72,000
http://www.geocities.com/versionizer/hetaki.jpg
Hetkali Hetaki is the second first-league club from Hetkali and never managed to step out of the shadow of the superior rival Hetlasane. Despite this, they were always in the higher regions of the first North Mintanian league. There is no team in entire Rejistania which was third in the first league (which means: One place away from the playoffs) as often as Hetaki.
Mikedi Veran Stadium, Matix kali
Capacity 67,000
http://www.geocities.com/versionizer/mikedi-veran.jpg
Mikedi Veran is the rival of Matix Veran. While Matix was founded as the team of the Majuvedian majority, the Mikedi Veran team consisted of the different minorities in the Matix suburb Mikedi. Of course this changed in the past years, but still there are much more Minokajetian fans then Majuvedians. Critical matches are very likely to take place here.
KaMaRi kaletri Stadium, KaMaRi kali
Capacity 65,000
http://www.geocities.com/versionizer/kamari-kaletri.jpg
KaMaRi kaletri is a phenomenon in rejistanian soccer because of one really strange series: In the first year of the foundation of the league in its current form, they got relegated, in the next season, they got promoted again, in the next year became rejistanian champion and got relegated one year after. After this series, which made them the laughing stock of the whole country, they never got relegated again.
