Stadiums
Dibba's stadium, Dibba Al Fujairah Stadium didn't fit UAE Pro-League requirements so the club had to play its home games in Fujairah Club Stadium during their stay in the top flight. Around 2022, the club completed construction of its own new stadium, Dibba New Stadium and played its first match in its new venue against Shabab Al Ahli in the Pro League.[2]
