Al-Shorta Stadium (Arabic: ملعب الشرطة‎), nicknamed The Cage, was a multi-use stadium in Baghdad, Iraq. It was used mostly for football matches and served as the home stadium of Al-Shorta. It could hold an estimated 8,634 people. The white hall on the side of the field, called the Abid Kadhim Hall in honour of club legend Abid Kadhim, can hold approximately 2,000 people. Abdul-Qadir Zeinal, club president at the time, oversaw the construction of the stadium in the late 1980s with club workers and volunteers and it was opened for its first match on 23 December 1990 where Al-Shorta beat Al-Tijara 3–2. In 2008, the stands were painted green and white to match the club's colours. The stadium began to be demolished on 4 March 2014 to make way for the construction of Al-Shorta Sports City.
