Any language*, any location worldwide, any time period either past or present. Stadia (plural of stadium), arenas, centers, etc are excluded terms because in addition to being the surface where the sports are played, they can also mean the building, structure, or overall venue.
*For languages other than English, please include a translation of what your entries mean.
