Helmy Zamora Stadium, formerly known as Abdel-Latif Abu-Rajelha Stadium, is a multi-use stadium in Giza, Egypt. The stadium was initially named in honor of Mohammed Hassan Helmy, the former player and president of Zamalek.
It was then renamed in 2014 to Abdel-Latif Abu-Rajelha Stadium after the former president of Zamalek Abdel-Latif Abu-Rajelhaa After that, it became Mohamed Hassan Helmy Stadium in 2023.[1][2] It is currently used mostly for football matches and was the home of Zamalek before they moved to Cairo International Stadium because of the small capacity. The stadium held as high as 40,000 spectators before the capacity was reduced to 20,000 as controls were put in place.
