“After the reconstruction, two central stands became active. Of the old side ones, one was demolished, and the other still remains, serving as a storage place. The capacity of the renovated stands, if I'm not mistaken, is up to 8,000.

The reconstruction of the stadium took place at the expense of state funds, but because of the war, everything was "frozen" for a while. The president of the club, at his own expense, helped bring the stadium up to the conditions that allow it to be played. The field, dressing rooms and the official VIP box are what was done so that Veres could finally play home matches in Rivne.

There is still work to be done to upgrade the running tracks and improve the area around the stadium. For now, no one will do anything else until the end of the war.

Now we will look forward to our victory over the enemy. When peace comes, the stadium located in the city center will be fully completed and will even be able to host international matches. As soon as the audience receives permission to visit it, the stands will be completely filled for sure. And now people are not up to football yet, ”said Wirth.
