The stadium takes its popular name from the surrounding Niterói neighborhood rather than the official namesake of the Governor.
It is one of the few municipal facilities in the region that consistently hosts youth-level competitive football matches throughout the year.
The pitch underwent significant renovations to switch from natural grass to artificial turf to increase durability for frequent community use.

Bring a hat and sunglasses, as the stadium stands offer limited shade during midday matches.
Confirm the match schedule on local municipal sports social media pages before visiting, as events are often organized on short notice.
Wear comfortable sneakers or sports shoes for navigating the stadium stairs and perimeter paths.
