When I was a little boy, I grew up in close proximity to the football ground of Vitesse Arnhem. Even from my bed, I could distinctly hear when a team scored a goal, followed by the enthusiastic roar that emerged from the little stadium. Later on, I moved to London, settling near the Arsenal ground in Highbury. It was during this time that I developed a deep interest in photography, prompting me to explore the idea of capturing images of stadiums nestled within residential areas. Over the past few years, I have made it a point to regularly travel to various countries and cities with the specific purpose of photographing local football stadiums. This will undoubtedly be an ongoing project, as there are still so many iconic stadiums waiting to be documented. However, I have noticed that with the substantial amounts of money currently circulating in this sport, many teams are opting to abandon their charming traditional stadiums in favor of building new state-of-the-art facilities. These newer stadiums are often constructed on the outskirts of cities, where ample space is available for cars and other amenities.
