Ground facts
| Opened | 1969 (1969 is when Bassett Park opened as Roma's racecourse and showground -- not a rugby-league-specific opening date. The venue's first recorded rugby league match is 1982, 13 years later, and it is not a dedicated rugby league ground: Roma-based clubs' current home ground is Arthur Beetson Oval. Deliberately checked against the possibility of a same-named venue elsewhere -- Rugby League Project's own Location field confirms this is the Roma, Queensland site.) |
