Netherdale stadium
Netherdale, a stadium with a capacity of 6,000 located in Galashiels in the Scottish Borders, is the home of the Gala Rugby Football Club and Border Reivers rugby union side in the Celtic League.
The success of the Border Reivers has meant that average crowds have increased dramatically in the past year and a second temporary fully seated stand was installed, increasing the capacity to around 6,000 from the previous 4,000. There are only 744 covered seats available.
