Elquemedo Willett Park is a sports complex in Charlestown featuring multiple playing fields centered around a well-equipped cricket ground with spectator seating and training facilities. The venue is designed to host both local competitions and international cricket matches.
The venue was originally called Grove Park before being renamed in 2010. Its first first-class cricket match took place in 1977 between the Leeward Islands and Windward Islands.
The park is named after Elquemedo Willett, the first cricket player from Nevis selected to represent the West Indies national team during the 1970s. This honors a significant figure in the island's sporting heritage.
