Eric Tweedale Stadium
Eric Tweedale Stadium is a new $11.3 million rectangular sports ground which opened in November 2021 within Granville Park in Sydney's west. While the history of the venue dates back to 1887, it was completely redeveloped from 2020 and features a new grandstand with seating for 760 spectators and 120-seat function room. A grass hill surrounds the remainder of the playing arena, with a total capacity of around 5,000. New lighting allows for night games and the playing field was resurfaced. The Parramatta Two Blues in the Shute Shield competition are based at Eric Tweedale Stadium, while the Greater Sydney Rams in the old NRC played at the venue in 2015. The NSW Waratahs played a pre-season trial at the venue in February 2022.
