Lambert Park (Leichhardt)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lambert Park is a purpose-built football stadium in Leichhardt, New South Wales, Australia. It is the home ground for the A.P.I.A. Leichhardt Tigers.

The stadium is peculiar in that it runs East to West, rather than North to South. The stadium has a nominal capacity of 7,000, with 2,000 seated in two main stands on either side of the playing field. In the Southern of these stands there is dressing room facilities, a social club with views of the game, press and media facilities and conference rooms, and also corporate facilities left over from the late NSL days. The Northern stand runs the full length of the playing field, seating around 1,200 spectators in 8 rows. This stand is regularly full for New South Wales Premier League encounters, with attendances at the ground in the last few season ranging from 800 to 3,000 spectators. The Western and Eastern ends behind the goals are hilled, packing in an extra 6,000 or so to the 2,000 seats.
