Senwes Park, Cricket ground in Potchefstroom, South Africa
Senwes Park is a cricket ground in Potchefstroom, South Africa. It has hosted two Test matches since 2002 and serves as a home venue for the Highveld Lions and AFL South Africa.
The stadium opened in the late 20th century and became a Test venue in 2002. It was renamed Senwes Park in 2008 after a naming rights agreement.
The name comes from a sponsorship deal with Senwes, an agricultural company. Locals often call it by its former name, Sedgars Park, and the ground is a meeting point for cricket fans in the region.
The ground is easy to reach by car and has parking nearby. Matches are best attended on weekends or public holidays when local crowds gather.
In 2017, the ground hosted South Africa's 100th T20 international match. It is also one of the few cricket venues in the country that regularly hosts Australian rules football.
