## Stadium

Skra plays their home games at the Miejski Stadion Piłkarski Skra in Częstochowa, with capacity of 990. Because their stadium didn’t meet the capacity requirements of the I liga, in the first part of the 2021–22 season they played every home match on the opponent’s stadiums, as the home team. From 7 April 2022 to 8 April 2023, they hosted their games at a substitute stadium GIEKSA Arena in Bełchatów.
