Bosnia and Herzegovina Football Team Home Stadium
Currently, the national team uses the Grbavica Stadium as its playing field after its renovation in 2018.
Bosnia and Herzegovina also uses the Bilino Polje Stadium, located in the city of Zenica, for many of their home games. The stadium, built and inaugurated in 1972, has undergone extensive reconstruction work since 2012 to meet the standards required to host international games.
Another stadium that Bosnia and Herzegovina have used is the Koševo City Stadium.
Bosnia and Herzegovina National Football Team Kit
The traditional colors of the Bosnia and Herzegovina kit are blue and white, taken from the country’s flag. While current home kits are primarily blue and away kits are primarily white, this color scheme was initially used in reverse order. This is due to the fact that the flag of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), used before the Dayton Agreement, was predominantly white.
