Between April and July 2014, FFB stadium received an upgrade to meet CONCACAF standards to hold international and club games.[1] These upgrades which included installation of 1100 - 1600 lux stadium lights, a FIFA certified field with certified bleachers and sanitary facilities with team lockers, as well as a complete enhancement of existing buildings. These upgrades were possible thanks to two million dollar donation by FIFA. [1] However, in August 2014, CONCACAF ruled that the stadium did not meet standards to host matches in the 2014–15 CONCACAF Champions League.[2]
