Tolip Stadium (Arabic: ستاد توليب), commonly referred to as Borg El Arab Stadium subfield (Arabic: ستاد برج العرب الفرعي), is a football stadium in Borg El Arab, Alexandria, Egypt. It is located near Borg El Arab Stadium, and is mostly used as a training ground for teams before matches at the main stadium. The stadium is also used by Pharco to host some of their home matches, and sometimes by the Egyptian national U-23 team to host their friendly matches.

During the 2017–18 Egyptian Premier League season, El Raja, a club from Mersa Matruh, used Tolip Stadium as their home ground because there was no suitable stadium in Mersa Matruh to host Egyptian Premier League matches.[1]
