History
Thephasadin Stadium was constructed in 1965 for the use in 1966 Asian Games as the Hockey venue, hence its original name, Hockey Field. It was renamed in 1983 in memory of Naga Devahastin na Ayudhya, former Acting Director-General of the Department of Physical Education.[4] With its capacity of 6,378 seats, it was retired from being the hockey stadium.[5]
The stadium was used as the venue for the 19th WBA Junior bantamweight (115 lbs) world title defense of Khaosai Galaxy against Mexican challenger Armando Castro on December 22, 1991. As a result, Galaxy won by unanimous decision and regarded as his last fight.[6]
