Al Makkab Field has an occupancy of 52,000 and was built in 1931, when not in use the field is used by several secondary institutions throughout the city for their own soccer games for a nominal usage fee. The majority of the stadium is an outdoor stadium open to the elements making games even more difficult for some spectators to enjoy.
