History

The stadium is named after Shahin Haxhiislami, one of the football legends of Peja. It is owned by the Municipality of Peć and also hosts matches for other local teams because their stadiums do not meet the minimum standards for holding matches, including football clubs from neighboring municipalities such as KF Deçani (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shahin_Haxhiislami_Stadium) (http://wikimapia.org/7387281/Shahin-Haxhiislami-Stadium).
