Home Stadium
The team have played in several stadiums throughout their history, however when they were originally formed they predominantly used the 55,000 seat Helong Stadium in Changsha for their important matches while the more modest 6,000 seat Hunan Provincial People's Stadium which is also located in Changsha was used for their smaller games. With the club in financial difficulties the cost in renting the Helong Stadium would see the team permanently move into the Hunan Provincial People's Stadium, which continued when the club was reformed and they were playing in the third tier. When they won promotion back into the second tier the Helong Stadium was an option for a brief period before 2011 when they have predominantly used the 20,000 seat Central South University Stadium in Changsha as their main stadium.
