Where

Capacity: 20,000 (approx)
Record Crowd:
19,137 – North Adelaide vs Port Adelaide (1958)
Home Team:

  • North Adelaide Football Club (SANFL)
  • Prospect District Cricket Club (Cricket)

Located at Menzies Crescent, Prospect, South Australia. Prospect oval has a capacity of 20,000 people with seated grandstands holding approximately 2,000. An unusual feature of the oval is that it is laid out askew from the conventional orientation of Australian rules football and cricket ovals, with the goal posts located at the South-Western and the North-Eastern ends, and the cricket pitch running in the same direction. All other grounds in the SANFL run in a north-south direction.

It is home to both the North Adelaide Football Club ( nicknamed ‘The Roosters’), who are a part of the South Australian National Football League, and the Prospect Cricket Club, who are members of the South Australian Grade Cricket League, administered by the South Australian Cricket Association.

The ground record attendance was set in Round 5 of the 1958 SANFL season when 19,137 saw defending SANFL premiers Port Adelaide defeat North Adelaide 14.14 (98) to 8.10 (58). The oval’s dimensions for Australian football are 170m x 120m.

2.5/ 5

On a wet rainy day, couldn’t get up the stairs at the main gate (incomplete paraplegic). Had to accompany a staff member to another gate (still raining) that was unlocked for me. After finally reaching the grandstand (only undercover seating), again no access. Had to sit out in the rain on my wet walker or a wet backless aluminium bench trying to watch my grandson play whilst holding onto my umbrella for dear life and trying to use my binoculars. I didn’t even bother to try to use their bathroom.
