Ronald Webster Park, Sports stadium in The Valley, Anguilla.
Ronald Webster Park is a sports stadium in The Valley with a natural grass surface designed for both cricket and football matches. The facility seats around 4,000 spectators and serves as the home ground for the national football team and regional cricket competitions.
The stadium was originally named Burrowes Park but was renamed in 1979 in honor of James Ronald Webster, Anguilla's first Chief Minister. This change reflected the island's move toward greater self-governance and independence.
The park serves as a gathering place where people come together for major public events and celebrations that matter to the island's community. School competitions and traditional festivals draw crowds who use the space to share important moments.
Visitors should check ahead to see what events are scheduled, as the stadium's availability varies throughout the year depending on matches and competitions. Weather conditions can affect the grass surface and may occasionally cause matches to be rescheduled, so it is worth planning accordingly.
The cricket pitch here was recognized by Wisden Cricketer magazine in 2009 for standing out as one of the best-quality surfaces in the Caribbean. This recognition from an international cricket publication shows the care taken in maintaining the playing surface.
