Initially built as an office and hostel for youth-level players, a ground was constructed alongside the facility in order to train the players onsite. The ground was later renovated to include an artificial turf for pitch durability due to Nepal's climate requiring constant pitch maintenance. It was built under FIFA's GOAL Project. In 2015, parapets was then constructed and the ground was inaugurated as a national stadium in time for the 2015 SAFF U-19 Championship.
