St George Stadium

St George Stadium, Football stadium in Banksia, Australia.

St George Stadium is a football ground in Banksia, beside Muddy Creek, a tributary of the Cooks River. It opened in March 1978 as part of Barton Park, and its grandstand later developed structural problems that pushed the club out in 2006. A sporting precinct redevelopment of Barton Park ran from 2023 to 2024, when the ground was renamed Barton Park Sports Complex and its grandstand named after Frank Arok.

The stadium first opened in March 1978 with an inaugural match between St George and South Melbourne in the National Soccer League. Over decades it grew into a key venue for football competitions across the Sydney region.

The ground sits beside Muddy Creek, a tributary of the Cooks River, and the club's tenure there ended in 2006 when structural problems with the grandstand made it unsuitable. St George FC returned for spells between 2009 and 2017, and the women's section played home games there from 2018 to 2021. In April 2024 Bayside Council granted the club licence 1 of the new Barton Park Sports Complex, covering fields 1 and 2, the Frank Arok Grandstand and the canteen.

The ground sits in Barton Park beside Muddy Creek, a Cooks River tributary in Banksia. After the 2023–2024 precinct works, St George FC holds licence 1 of the Barton Park Sports Complex, covering fields 1 and 2, the Frank Arok Grandstand and the canteen. Access is tied to match days and club use rather than general opening.

The ground hosted an OFC 1986 World Cup qualifier in which Australia beat Chinese Taipei 8-0. After St George left in 2006, the site was widely vandalised between 2007 and 2008, and security fences went up around the perimeter over fears the grandstand would collapse. The 2023-2024 Barton Park works produced the Frank Arok Grandstand, licensed to St George FC in April 2024.
