Where

Capacity: 15,000 (approx)
Record Crowd:
17,171 – Glenelg vs Sturt (July 20th, 1968)
Home Team:

  • Glenelg Football Club (SANFL)
  • Glenelg Cricket Club (Cricket)

Glenelg Oval (currently ACH Group Stadium and formerly Gliderol Stadium @ Glenelg) is located on Brighton Road, Glenelg East, South Australia. The ground is primarily used for Australian rules football and cricket and is the home ground for the Glenelg Football Club in the SANFL competition. It is also the home of the Glenelg Cricket Club, and hosts local school football matches, with the Glenelg Primary School located beyond the southern end of the ground with two seated grandstands holding approximately 1,500.

The oval has a current capacity of 15,000 and the entire spectator area on the western side or Brighton Road side of the ground is concrete terracing. This is also where the 500 seat HY Sparkes Stand and the 1,000 seat Edward Rix Stand are located, as well as the Glenelg Cricket Club. The Glenelg Football Club offices, bars and function rooms are located under the Rix Stand. The entire outer side of the ground which extends from goal to goal consists only of grass banking which is less than 5 metres wide on the outer wing. The area behind the southern goals is generally where the Glenelg cheer squad stands for games. At only 160m x 115m Glenelg Oval is among the smallest playing surfaces in the SANFL.

The ground record attendance was set on 20 July 1968 when 17,171 saw Sturt defeat Glenelg by just one point, 13.13 (91) to 13.12 (90).
