Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid
History
The stadium was built in 32 days, after a popular movement led by the club's president Nabi Abi Chedid. It was initially named Estádio Parque das Pedras, then just Estádio das Pedras. The inaugural match was played in 1949, when Bragantino beat Mogina of Campinas 2–1. The first goal of the stadium was scored by Bragantino's Sacadura.
The stadium's attendance record currently stands at 15,000 people, set on 26 August 1990 when Bragantino and Novorizontino drew 1–1. This match was one of the legs of the Campeonato Paulista final of that year.
The second leg of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A final between Bragantino and São Paulo was played on 9 June 1991 at the stadium. The match ended in a 0–0 draw, and São Paulo won the championship. The match attendance was 12,492 people, which is the lowest attendance ever in a Campeonato Brasileiro final.
The stadium was renamed to Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid on 6 January# 2009. It was formerly named Estádio Marcelo Stéfani. The name change was badly received by the Bragança Paulista population.
