Flamengo unveil new stadium for home matches | OneFootball

Flamengo’s debut takes place this Wednesday (29)

The Ninho do Urubu Training Center, home of Flamengo, will start hosting matches for the club’s youth teams. The debut will be this Wednesday (29), with the under-15 and under-17 squads facing Madureira. The matches will be played on field 6 of the training center and are valid for the seventh round of the Taça Guanabara.

Flamengo’s youth teams usually host matches at Gávea, but the Rubro-Negro wants to bring the games to the training center, where the club trains daily. In other words, the idea is for the youngsters to gain a technical advantage by playing where they are already used to being. In addition, those at Ninho will have access to the gym, medical department, a dedicated nutrition area, and cafeteria, among other facilities, before and after the matches.

WHAT IS THE OTHER ADVANTAGE SEEN BY FLAMENGO?

Logistics is considered another major benefit. Before each match, the players, coaching staff, and support staff report to Ninho do Urubu and, according to the schedule, need to arrive at Gávea around an hour and a half before kickoff.

The trip from the training center to the stadium, made by bus, takes an average of an hour and a half, but it can be a few minutes shorter depending on traffic conditions and the day of the week, since the flow of vehicles is lighter on Saturdays and Sundays. This travel time will now be incorporated into the schedule.
