Champion Hill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Champion Hill is a football (soccer) stadium in Dulwich, London. It is the home ground of Dulwich Hamlet, and Fisher Athletic currently share the ground. 'The Hill' was formerly one of the largest amateur grounds in England, with attendances once reaching 20,000 and beyond. However, Dulwich Hamlet fell on hard times, so much of the land they owned was sold for development of a Sainsbury's supermarket. The subsequent stadium was previously the training pitch before the 1980's. During the 1948 Summer Olympics, (Old) Champion Hill hosted football matches.
