Ground facts
| Opened | unknown (No source found gives a specific opening year for the oval itself. Holt is confirmed as a genuine constituent suburb within the Belconnen district of Canberra, so this site's area field is accurate here, unlike some other cases on this site. Floodlight status could not be confirmed with certainty -- the ACT Government's sportsgrounds registry lists two related but distinct assets within the same Holt complex with differing floodlight status, and neither is unambiguously matched to the specific ground called Kippax Oval.) |

Rugby league history
Kippax Oval is primarily an Australian rules football ground within the Holt District Playing Fields in Belconnen, Canberra, long the home of the Belconnen Magpies. Its two recorded rugby league matches were incidental reserve-grade fixtures involving Canberra Raiders-affiliated sides: a 1998 NSWRL First Division match (Canberra Reserves 14-34 Illawarra Steelers Reserves) and a 2007 NSWRL Premier League match (Canberra Reserves 38-10 North Sydney Bears Reserves), both directly confirmed against Rugby League Project's own results page.
