Several stadiums across the country hosted the championship matches.

Note
A regular English -s plural, and the everyday choice for sports venues full of crowds. The Latin plural stadia coexists in formal and technical writing. It survives in surveying, where a graduated rod sighted through a telescope gives its name to stadia wires. For football grounds and arenas, though, the -s form now predominates in general usage.
