Oakwell
Oakwell is a multi-purpose sports ground in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England used by Barnsley Football Club for home fixtures, and those of their reserves. From 2023, the Barnsley F.C. Women's team also played at the stadium until the club withdrew them from the 2025/26 season. While the name generally refers to the main stadium, it also includes several neighbouring venues which form the facilities of the Barnsley FC Academy, an indoor training pitch, a smaller stadium with seating on the south and west sides for around 2,200 spectators, and several training pitches used by the different Barnsley FC squads. Oakwell was the first stadium in English football to have a designated stand for disabled supporters. Until 2003, the stadium and the vast amount of land that surrounds it were owned by Barnsley Football Club, but after the club fell into administration in 2002 the council purchased Oakwell Stadium to allow the club to pay its creditors and remain in the Football League. In 2025, Oakwell Stadium held its first non-footballing event, with boxer Callum Simpson taking on Italian national Ivan Zucco in a head-to-head fight for the European Championship. Simpson won with a knockout in the 10th round in front of approximately 15,000 spectators.
