Barry Davidson Oval

Barry Davidson Oval functions as a primary recreational asset for the Back Creek community. This sporting venue features a traditional turf cricket wicket and an expansive grassed area suitable for various field sports. Located in the Northern Rivers region, the ground supports local sporting associations and provides a dedicated space for organised weekend matches and casual practice sessions. The facility is managed to ensure the playing surface remains consistent for seasonal competition. Situated a short drive from the Lismore Showgrounds, the oval offers a peaceful environment away from more populated urban centres. Visitors and athletes can access the site via local roads, finding a functional space designed for grassroots participation. While primarily used for cricket, the open layout accommodates diverse community requirements throughout the year. The venue represents the importance of regional infrastructure in maintaining active lifestyle opportunities for residents living outside the main townships of the district.
