History and description

The Rat Verlegh Stadion, located at the Beatrixstraat, replaced the old NAC-Stadion. Construction of the new stadium started in 2005 and it officially opened on 11 August 1996 with a friendly match between NAC and Brazilian side Grêmio (0-0). For the first decade of its existence, Rat Verlegh Stadium went by several sponsors names. However, in 2006 the club decided to adopt the name of Rat Verlegh, who was a player for the club between 1912 and 1931 and a popular icon among the club's fans.

Initial capacity was slightly lower at just over 17,000 seats, but a few minor renovations and the introduction of a small number of standing places have raised it to the current 19,000.
