History

With the name of Jesús García Corona (1881-1907) is honored that became known as the " Hero of Nacozari " in the story, when he saved the city Nacozari de García before a catastrophic explosion, but even this was killed.

The stadium already served several clubs from Hermosillo in the third and fourth league from the home ground. In three and a half seasons, it was even the venue of the second division, as each for a season, the Gallos Blancos (1995 /96) and the Coyotes (2005/ 06 ) and for one and a half years, the Guerreros ( mid-2009 to end 2010) were represented in the same.

On September 13, 1992, the stadium was the only time the venue for a Erstligabegegnung, as the Puebla FC had moved his home game against Atlante (0-0 ) here. At the beginning of the 1992/93 season, the club could not use its stadium and had to deliver his first five home matches on foreign places, the third home game took place in Hermosillo on Matchday.

In addition, concerts are held in the stadium occasionally. Thus came 28 July 2011 on the Colombian superstar Shakira at the Estadio de Héroe Nacozari.
