Cromer Park

Cromer Park is a football stadium in Cromer featuring a large synthetic playing surface and a 900-seat grandstand. The venue can accommodate up to 5,000 spectators and includes changing rooms, toilets, and canteen facilities.

The site was originally designated for a high school in 1969, but swampy conditions led to its conversion into a sports facility in the 1970s. This change directed the land toward becoming a modern sports venue.

The main grandstand bears Lucas Neill's name, honoring a former player who started at Manly United before captaining the Australian national team. This connection ties the venue to important moments in local football history.

The facility is easily accessible via Sydney Bus routes 179, 180, and 180X, making it simple to reach by public transport. Ample parking is available on-site for those arriving by car.

In 2022, the field was upgraded with a cork and coconut husk mixture to meet FIFA international standards. This specialized surface significantly improves playing quality and player safety.
