The Norman Lahey Green

The Norman Lahey Green functions as a primary sporting facility in St Lucia, predominantly used for cricket matches and community athletics. Situated within the extensive grounds of the University of Queensland, the venue provides a professional-standard turf pitch and well-maintained outfields. Its location near the Brisbane River ensures a temperate environment for both competitive players and weekend social cricketers. The site integrates into the broader educational and sporting hub of the suburb, supporting various local sporting associations and student clubs throughout the year. Visitors to the area often combine a trip to the green with a visit to the nearby UQ Lakes. This proximity offers a convenient transition from sporting activities to natural recreational spaces. The venue maintains a focus on accessibility for university students and the general public, providing a functional space for physical activity and outdoor events. With its established infrastructure and central position in St Lucia, it remains a consistent fixture for regional cricket competitions and university-led sports programmes.
