Senior Football Venues

[mountainsofpain]

Here is something to keep people busy for a while. I'd like to compile a list of all footy venues used in Sydney to host senior footy (incl U18s). Not sure why, just for interest's sake. And for something to do.

I'll post a few to get things rolling. I'll split them into past/current, and post a few past ones:

Past
Bargo Showground (Bargo/Wollondilly)
Cook Park (St Clair)
Dukes Oval (Penrith)
ELS Hall Park (Parramatta)
Erskineville Oval (Newtown)
Hawkesbury Ag College (Hawkesbury Ag College)
Heathcote Oval (Heathcote)
HMAS Nirimba (HMAS Nirimba)
Jensen Oval (Bankstown)
Kellyville Country Club (Baulkham Hills)

There's 10 for a start.

These ones have hosted senior games in the last decade but no longer do.
WH Wagener Oval (Ashbury)
Alan Davidson Oval (St Peters)
Kelso Oval (East Hills)
Bankstown Oval (Bankstown)
North Sydney Oval (North Sydney)

Tamplin Field!!! Had no idea, such a small park, now used for dog training. This is proving an interesting read..

Hawkesbury played there after McGraths Hill, for three or four seasons in the late 80s, before moving to Bensons Lane.

Probably should enquire more with the boss, he would've been around at that time. Colebee is just around the corner from my place, and apparently hasn't changed much surface wise. Boss was banging on before xmas about all the boys heading down there with cars parked around the ground, pulling massive rocks from the surface. Oakville soccer have the run of it now.

Southern Power have played games at:

Waratah Park 4 (Lincoln Oval) - I think Old Sutherland / St Pats may have played here too.
Barden Ridge Oval

I remember Clubs playing at the SCG and the Training ground outside the SCG also.

I reckon we played at Deerubbin Park too.
