History

The first recorded cricket match played on the ground saw a United States Virgin Islands President's XI play a friendly match against Trinidad and Tobago in 1992.[1] The United States Virgin Islands cricket team is first recorded as playing there in 1993 against Anguilla in the 1993 Leeward Islands One-Day Championship.[1] First-class cricket was first played in 2003 when the Leeward Islands cricket team played Trinidad and Tobago in the 2002/03 Carib Beer Cup.[2] The ground has since held five first-class matches for the Leeward Islands, the last of which saw the team play the Windward Islands in the 2008/09 Regional Four Day Competition.[2] Eight first-class centuries have been scored there,[3] while five five wicket hauls have also been taken.
