History[]

Thephasadin Stadium was constructed in 1965 for the use in 1966 Asian Games as the Hockey venue, hence its original name, Hockey Field. It was renamed in 1983 in memorial of Sanan Thephasadin na Ayutthaya, considered the Father of Thai Football. With its capacity of 6,378 seats, it was retired from being the hockey stadium.[4]

The stadium was used as the venue for the 19th WBA Junior bantamweight (115 lbs) world title defense of Khaosai Galaxy against Mexican challenger Armando Castro on December, 22 1991. As a result, Galaxy won by unanimous decision and regarded as his last fight.[5]

Thephasatin Stadium used to be the temporary home of BEC Tero Sasana on 2010–2012 since Nong Chok Sport Stadium is undergoing renovations. Thephasatin Stadium, used as a football field organized for national football match and Asian sports after the Supachalasai Stadium.[6][7]
