History edit
With the introduction of the bauxite mining industry to Jamaica in the late 1950s and mid 1960s, a number of sports and social club's were constructed for their employees. The Alpart Sports Club was one such sports and social club, formed for the workers of the nearby Alpart owned refinery.[1] The ground first played host to major cricket when it hosted a List A one-day match in the 1980–81 Geddes Grant/Harrison Line Trophy between Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago. From 1997, the ground was a regular venue for matches in the Red Stripe Bowl, with 13 one-day matches played there to 2007.[2] Between 1999 and 2011, the ground also played host to 14 home first-class matches for Jamaica in the Regional Four Day Competition.[3]
