Usage
Sports
International Sports Centre is the home of League 1 side International SC since its opening in August 2012. The Gerenian Football Association chose the stadium to host the national team matches later that year.
The primary usage of the stadium is football: matches of both the Gerenian League 1 and the 2012–13 AEFA Champions' League Qualifiers have been played at the Centre.
The Sports Centre has also hosted amateur baseball games before the Southern Ballpark was built, and some rugby union matches.
Other uses
The stadium contains 5,000 m2 of exhibition space, allowing it to host a variety of events year-round. In December of each year, the stadium hosts the League 1 Award ceremony for football in Gerenia.
In addition to being a venue that hosts sports, concerts and other events, the Sports Centre also houses the head offices of a number of organisations, including the headquarters of the Sports Association of the province of Isherwood. International SC have its office headquarters located in the building, as well.
Attendance records
The attendance record at the International Sports Centre is 33,214 set on December 1, 2012, when International played Isherwood CSSC for the 2012 Gerenian National Cup semi-finals. The highest attendances coincide with each Isherwood derby played at the stadium between International SC and Isherwood CSSC. On September 19, 2012, almost 31,000 people saw the 2012–13 AEFA Champions' League Qualifiers final between Mayfield Bazree AC and Ramez City White Stars, which the latter won 2–1.
