Belmore Sports Ground
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Belmore Sports Ground is a multi-use stadium in Belmore, New South Wales, Australia. It is mainly is used for football (soccer) and is the home ground for the Sydney Olympic FC team. The stadium has a capacity of 25,000 people and was built in 1920.
The Canterbury Bulldogs NRL team played their home games at Belmore Sports Ground from 1935 until 1998 and but still use Belmore for their training and administration. Due to the BSG's dilapidated state, the "Back to Belmore" campaign was launched in August 2005 with the protest mainly aimed at procuring Federal Government funding to upgrade Belmore Sports Ground as a top-class sporting facility and the Canterbury-Bankstown area's premier sporting venue, with a view of the Canterbury Bulldogs staging a select number of their NRL home games at their traditional home ground in the long-term future.
