Netherlands, province: Limburg

May 2009, April 2010, February 2019 / no match visited

Note 1: Sportpark De Kraal was home to VVV from the club's foundation onwards; it was also home to successor SC VVV '03 (a merger of VVV and Sportclub Venlo '54) and FC VVV. In 1972, the club moved about 200 yards northwards to Stadion De Koel (floodlights can be discerned in picture 12 below). Since, De Kraal (or what has been left of it) has remained in use as a training location for VVV.
