Urritxe Stadium

The Campo de Futbol Municipal Nuevo Urritxe, commonly known as just Urritxe, is a multi-use stadium located in Amorebieta-Etxano, Biscay, Basque Country, Spain. It is currently used for football matches and is the home stadium of SD Amorebieta.

History

Built in 2002 over the plot which was occupied by the old stadium, Urritxe was inaugurated on 12 October of that year, with its first match being a friendly between Athletic Bilbao and Racing de Santander. It contains a roofed stand with a capacity of 500 people, while the remainder of its capacity is distributed for standing places or seats.

In June 2021, after SD Amorebieta's promotion to Segunda Division, the club had to search for another home stadium as Urritxe did not comply with the Liga de Futbol Profesional requirements. The club later reached an agreement with Athletic for the utilisation of the Lezama Facilities.
