Čika Dača Stadium (Template:Lang-sr) is a multi-use stadium in Kragujevac, Serbia. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home ground of FK Radnički 1923. The stadium was named in memory of Danilo Stojanović, known as Čika Dača, who is considered to be a pioneer of football in Serbia.[2]
History
The construction of the stadium began in November 1949 and took eight years for various reasons. Finally, the club's new football home was finished on June 6, 1957. The newly built stadium has received 30.000 spectators and the first game which was played on, was between Radnički Kragujevac and Partizan Belgrade and it ended 2-2. The largest attendance in a Yugoslav First League game was on August 24, 1969 when Radnički played against Hajduk Split in front of a crowd of 35,000. The largest attendance ever recorded in the stadium took place in 1969 when Radnički played a friendly match against Santos at which 40,000 spectators came to watch the legendary Pele play in Yugoslavia for the first time.[3][4]
