Four small "stadiums" (actually, three small football pitches and one local sports centre) with capacity from 150 to 500 people. Basically, the kind of pitch nearly every village in the world has for one or more sports, be it soccer, cricket, baseball, ... This nom does explicitly not include the Stade John Girardin, which, small as it is, is the "national" stadium for Saint-Pierre et Miquelon.

Also included in this nomination are:

Keep for Stade Léonce Claireaux, Stade de l'Avenir, and Centre Culturel et Sportif- Sports Venue Notability is quite clear. The first two stadiums host a semi-professional/amateur team from the top division in a territory that does not have a fully professional league. The Centre Culture et Sportif is home to all teams in the territory's highest futsal league which also meets the requirement-- Gri3720 ( talk) 18:57, 18 March 2020 (UTC) reply
Weak keep-Stade Léon Mahé because it only hosts the youth matches of A.S. Ilienne Amateur but has hosted top flight matches in the women's league.-- Gri3720 ( talk) 19:05, 18 March 2020 (UTC) reply
Did you read Sports Venue Notability? Also, if we were going to just merge anything, it would make more sense to merge with the clubs, not the whole territory’s article.-- Gri3720 ( talk) 00:56, 19 March 2020 (UTC) reply
That is an essay, not an accepted notability guideline, and with good reason, since it claims notability for very minor stadiums like these ones just because they are in a small country (well, territory). A stadium with only room for a few hundred people does not support a "semi-professional" team, it is the location for amateur teams. Nothing wrong with that, but not something we should have on enwiki. Notability can be demonstrated by reliable, independent sources with non-routine coverage about the stadium, not by quoting some essay. Fram ( talk) 07:56, 19 March 2020 (UTC) reply
I would not prefer to merge these to the clubs, since stadiums are buildings and can end up being used in ways distinct from specific organizations. BD2412 T 18:28, 19 March 2020 (UTC) reply
