history

The venue was originally built as a baseball stadium in 1974 . The baseball team of the Vaqueros de Bayamón carried the games in the JRL until their dissolution in 2003 . Since there was no user for the stadium; the facility was threatened with demolition. In the same year the football club Puerto Rico Islanders was founded; with which another team moved into the Estadio Juan Ramón Loubriel . So that the team could play their games in the sports facility; it was rebuilt and renovated.

Since 2009 Bayamón FC from the Puerto Rican soccer league PRSL has also been based in Juan Ramón Loubriel . It is also the home of the Puerto Rican national soccer team for men and women .
