History

Until the middle of the 1990s, the football ground in Igalo was among amateur-pitches like neighbouring Stadion Opačica or Stadion Bijela. But, with FK Igalo's promotion to the Second Yugoslav League, a new stadium was built on the old location with one terrace and numerous pitches around the main ground.
During the winter months, because of good climate and accommodation, the stadium is used for exhibition matches, tournaments, trainings and preparations of many football teams from the region (Montenegro, Serbia, North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia).
Since 1973, Stadion Solila is a host of traditional Mimoza Cup,[1] which hosted numerous popular teams such as Budućnost, Hajduk, Partizan, Crvena zvezda, Željezničar, Luzern and others.

Pitch

The pitch measures 115 x 70 meters. Other pitches have smaller dimensions and don't have terraces.

Tenants

Stadion Solila is home of FK Igalo, a member of the Montenegrin Second League.
