The Govind Park is a sports stadium in Fiji Ba . The facility is named after Kishore Nand Govind († 2020), who was mayor of Ba between 1969 and 1975, judge at the Supreme Court and promoter of football in Fiji.
The stadium, opened on July 17, 1976 by Manikam V. Pillay, then President of the Fiji Football Association , holds around 13,500 spectators and is used by the locally based club Ba FC for its home games. Sometimes the Fijian national soccer team plays in this stadium. In addition, several international matches have already taken place there with teams from Asia, Australia, New Zealand or the South Pacific. In June 2011 the Kshatriya World Cup BA 2011 was held.
