JJB STADIUM

Wigan, Greater Manchester, England

DW Stadium (known as the JJB Stadium before August 2009) is a dual-purpose sports stadium located within the Robin Park retail complex in Wigan, Greater Manchester, opened and built in 1999. The stadium was named after its principal sponsor, the sporting goods retailer JJB Sports—whose former chairman Dave Whelan owns the Wigan Athletic football club.

Its current capacity is 25,138—seated in four single-tier stands—although its record attendance was in 2008 when 25,133 people witnessed Manchester United play Wigan Athletic in the title-deciding match of the 2007–08 Premier League season. Both football and rugby league matches are played on its grass pitch, and the stadium is home to a team from each sport; Wigan Athletic and Wigan Warriors respectively. Rugby union was also once played at the stadium in the outfit of Orrell RUFC, but the club failed to achieve the success demanded of them and as a result moved out of the stadium in 2003.
