William Ole Ntimama Stadium, formerly called Narok Stadium, is a 20,000 seat association football and multi-use stadium in Narok. It is currently the home field of Kariobangi Sharks F.C. and Sofapaka F.C. of the Kenyan Premier League, the top-flight of Kenyan football.
The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister of Kenya commissioned a renovation of the stadium in 2012 following a request by the local government. The stadium was renamed in 2020 after late politician William Ole Ntimama who died in 2016.
