Lords Cricket Ground: A Historic Name

Loforus Verfeld Stadium in Pretoria, which was established in 1923 and has carried its name since 1932, is a historic sports facility that evolved from a local ground with a capacity of 2,000 spectators into a versatile international venue. It underwent an investment development worth 99 million South African rand before the 2010 World Cup. The stadium now participates in hosting a match between Mamelodi Sundowns and Al-Ahli Saudi in the 2026 Club World Cup. It is characterized by diverse revenue sources, including sponsorship, hospitality, advertising, venue rentals, and events, making it more than just a stadium for matches—it's a sports and business platform year-round. Despite changes in sponsorship, the name "Loforus" has retained its historical significance. It is considered one of Pretoria's sports icons that have remained relevant for over a century.
