Estadio George Capwell

Estadio Banco del Pacífico Capwell is a multi-purpose stadium in Guayaquil, Ecuador.

It was announced right after Emelec won the 2013 Ecuador Serie A title that Estadio George Capwell would be completely remodeled to hold a capacity of 40,000 fans.

[3] Founder George Lewis Capwell was born in the United States; he traveled to Ecuador to supervise his electric company Empresa Eléctrica del Ecuador, translated into English as the Ecuadorian Electric Company.

It was named after George Capwell not just to honor the soccer club's founder and first president, but also because he led the construction of the stadium.

The construction was completed, and Estadio George Capwell was inaugurated with a baseball game between Emelec and Oriente, on October 21, 1945, with 11,000 fans in attendance.
