Huish Park, football stadium
Huish Park is a football stadium in Yeovil, Somerset, serving as home to Yeovil Town since 1990. The ground features four main stands with distinct characteristics: the largest Tamburino Stand with seating and hospitality boxes, the Screwfix Community Stand on the east side housing press facilities, the Thatchers Gold Stand as a covered terrace for home supporters, and the Radio Cabs Stand as an uncovered area for away fans.
Huish Park opened in 1990 as a replacement for the older Huish Athletic Ground, which the club had used since 1920. The first official league match took place against Colchester United, which Yeovil Town won 2-0, marking a successful start in their new home.
The stadium's name connects to the earlier Huish Athletic Ground that the club previously called home. Visitors can experience the strong bond between local supporters and the team when watching a match from the stands.
The stadium is best reached by car, bus, or train, with Yeovil Pen Mill and Yeovil Junction stations about 5 kilometers away. Parking is available nearby for a small fee, and arriving early is recommended to secure a space.
Yeovil Town is known for its legendary 1949 FA Cup victory against Sunderland, a result that brought the club to national attention. This match remains one of the proudest moments in club history and is still told by fans today.
