Olympia Park Stadion is a multi-purpose stadium located in Rustenburg, South Africa. Not to be confused with the Royal Bafokeng Stadium, where the 2010 FIFA World Cup games were played, it is currently used mostly for soccer and rugby matches; it was utilized as a training field for teams participating in the 2010 FIFA World Cup after being upgraded to meet FIFA specifications.[2]
The ground is the home stadium of Orbit College. Upon their promotion to the 2025–26 South African Premiership, Orbit College had to utilise another stadium at the start of the season due to the floodlights not being up to Premiership standard.[3]
