, etc.). In many, but not all cases, it is also used by a local team. Many countries, including Spain and the United States, do not have a national stadium designated as such; instead matches are rotated throughout the country. The lack of a national stadium can be seen as advantageous as designating a single stadium would limit the fan base capable of realistically attending matches as well as the concern of the cost of transportation, especially in the case of the United States due to its geographical size and high population. A list of national stadiums follows:

Lamade Stadium (Little League Baseball)—Lamade Stadium is the primary stadium of the Little League World Series, hosting the final every year. It is one of two stadiums at the Little League headquarters complex in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania that permanently hosts the LLWS, with Little League Volunteer Stadium, Volunteer Stadium as the other. *Augusta National Golf Club (men's golf)—Augusta is home of The Masters, the only one of the three U.S.-based men's major golf tournaments to be held at a constant venue year after year; the U.S. Open (golf), U.S. Open and PGA Championship are both held at rotating venues. *Mission Hills Country Club (women's golf)—Mission Hills hosts the ANA Inspiration, only one of the three U.S.-based women's major golf tournaments to be held at a constant venue year after year; the United States Women's Open Championship (golf), U.S. Women's Open and Women's PGA Championship are both held at rotating venues. *Arthur Ashe Stadium (tennis)—primary stadium of the lone U.S. tennis major, the US Open (tennis), US Open.

They play at different venues throughout the country for exhibition or tournament purposes. However, 21 games were held in Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, RFK Stadium in the country's capital, Washington, D.C., more than any other venue in the country, which led to suggestions that RFK Memorial was the ''de facto'' national stadium prior to its 2019 closure.Bill Simmons "Every big American soccer game should be played in RFK."
