Dælenenga idrettspark is a sports facility located at Grünerløkka in Oslo, Norway. It consists of an artificial turf football pitch, a club house and an indoor ice rink—Grünerhallen. The facilities are owned by the Municipality of Oslo and used and operated by Grüner IL, the local sports club. The venue opened in 1916 and was originally used for football, athletics and speed skating. The club house was completed in 1928 and has since been used for martial arts. From 1929, a velodrome course was installed, which remained in use until 1940. During the 1930s, the venue was the main Oslo stadium for the Workers' Sports Federation (AIF). A speedway course was installed in 1947 and remained in use until 1968. The venue featured eight ice hockey matches and two bandy matches during the 1952 Winter Olympics. Artificial ice was laid in 1985 and the skating hall opened in 1995, two years before the artificial turf was laid. ==History== Construction started in 1915.〔Fossen (1998): 143〕 The stadium opened in 1916 as a combined football and athletics venue with a capacity for 10,000 spectators.〔Bryhn (1990): 75〕 The track was iced during winter and used for speed skating. Dælenenga was one of two multi-sport venues serving eastern Oslo, along with Jordal Idrettspark.〔Fossen (1998): 123〕 The club house, used for wrestling and boxing,〔 opened in 1928. The following year, the ice rink was decommissioned and a velodrome was instead installed, which remained in use until 1940.〔 During the Second World War, the club house was used as a school.〔Fossen (1998): 18〕 In 1947, the velodrome was removed and the track converted for use for speedway.〔 For the 1952 Winter Olympics, the venue was upgraded with a new ice hockey clock, a new lighting system and new ice hockey boards.〔Organising Committee for the VI Winter Olympic Games (1952): 32〕 The speedway course was dismounted in 1968.〔 During the 1980s, the stadium became a central location for drug dealing, but the traffic moved away during the 1990s.〔Fossen (1998): 145〕 In 1985, artificial ice was laid north of the football pitch, costing 2.1 million Norwegian krone (NOK). Of this, NOK 1.3 million was financed by Grüner IL through loans. At the same time a new gravel pitch was laid on the football field.〔 The artificial ice increased the popularity of playing ice hockey in the neighborhood. The club therefore started working on plans to build an indoor ice rink over the artificial rink. Planning of the hall started in 1989,〔 and in 1990 a proposal for a steel structure was launched.〔 However, it was rejected by the municipality. The club therefore hired Einar Dahle Arkitekter to work on a new design, resulting in area planning regulations being passed in 1991.〔 Financing of the steel structure had been secured in loans, but these were stopped following a credit crunch.〔 In 1994, the municipality initiated a redevelopment program of the downtown residential areas, which included grants to build Grünerhallen. The hall was estimated to cost NOK 23.4 million and the contract was awarded to Mur 6 Tax. Construction started in March 1995 and the venue opened on 6 October 1995,〔 as the 30th indoor ice rink in Norway. In 1996, the city council had to grant an additional NOK 4.6 million to cover cost overruns. Ahead of 1997, the municipal council granted NOK 3.2 million to lay artificial turf at Dælenenga. Construction started in May and the pitch was taken into use on 4 September 1997. The new turf was Belgian-manufactured, sand-filled Superfoot 32.〔 The upgrade also saw the first upgrades to the terraces in the stadium's history.〔 New artificial turf was laid in 2008. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dælenenga idrettspark」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
