Steelyard Stadium is a football ground in Pohang, South Korea. It is the home stadium of Pohang Steelers. The stadium holds 25,000 people and was built in 1990 (It is the first football-only stadium in Korea.)

Pohang Steelers are a Korean football club. They were originally called POSCO, after the Pohang Iron and Steel Company that owned it, the club was founded in 1973 and is one of Korean football’s most successful sides.

The club professionalized for the 1984 season and changed its name to POSCO Dolphins, but by the 1985 season they had changed yet again to POSCO Atoms. 1986 saw them win their first Championship, and they enjoyed a great spell of domination in the league; between 1985 and 1998 they were continually in the top four of the League.
