The ultra-modern sports complex was personally built by the Vice President and named after the late Overlord of Mamprugu, Naa Sheriga.

It has auxiliary facilities such as, a standard astroturf, a VIP stand, changing rooms, stands with a seating capacity of 1000 people, offices, as well as expanded standing areas for future expansion.

After the commissioning, the Vice President wrote “This morning, I commissioned an ultra-modern sports complex I personally built for the youth of Nalerigu and its environs.
