Currently it is mostly used to host football matches.
- In recent years, until 2009, the stadium was used as headquarters and training ground by Platinum Stars F.C.. Playing first in the National First Division and later in Premier Soccer League, the club however preferred to use some much bigger stadiums, as home venue for their professional league matches. In 2000-06 the club used the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane as home venue, and for subsequent years they have been playing at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium in Phokeng.
- When Highlands Park FC won promotion for Vodacom League in June 2007, the club decided to move their training and home venue to the Modderfontein Sports Club. As of June 2011, this is still the home venue of the club.
