History
The ground was completed prior to the year 2003, with the first match held at the ground seeing Sint Maarten play a minor match against Anguilla. The ground held its inaugural first-class fixture in February 2004 when the Leeward Islands played the Windward Islands in the 2003–04 Carib Beer Cup. Five further first-class matches have been played at the ground, the last coming in the 2008–09 Regional Four Day Competition between the Leeward Islands and Barbados. Nine first-class centuries have been scored here, with Ryan Hinds' 240 the highest score. One List A match was played at the ground in the 2006–07 KFC Cup between the Leeward Islands and the Windward Islands, in a match which saw the Windward's Dennis George take a five wicket haul. This remains the only List A match to be played at the ground.In April 2014, the scoreboard at the ground was seriously damaged by fire, leading to its demolition. It was speculated that the fire was a deliberate act of arson.
