Nundah Oval
Brisbane (Nundah), Queensland, Australia
Nundah Oval, Brisbane (Nundah), Australia — opened Not confirmed (in use for Brisbane Rugby League fixtures by April 1959), 110 rugby league games hosted, home of None — a shared Brisbane Rugby League ground used by multiple clubs (Norths, Easts, Wests, Wynnum-Manly, Fortitude Valley, Southern Suburbs, Past Christian Brothers, Redcliffe), rather than any single club's dedicated home.
Sourcing caveat: This is very likely a third, genuinely distinct Nundah ground from both Premiers' Park (Bishop Park, Norths' dedicated home since 1969) and Oxenham Park (the shared 1930s-1950s BRL venue), based on Rugby League Project treating it as a separate venue with non-overlapping-in-nature match records that bridge and overlap those two grounds' eras. However, no source beyond Rugby League Project's raw fixture list was found confirming this independently (e.g. a heritage listing or council park record), so the identification, while well-supported by the fixture evidence, is not confirmed by a second, independent source in the way Oxenham Park's and Premiers' Park's histories are.

Rugby league history
Rugby League Project records Nundah Oval as hosting Brisbane Rugby League fixtures from 1959 through at least 1970, used by a rotating cast of BRL clubs including Norths, Easts, Wests, Wynnum-Manly, Fortitude Valley, Southern Suburbs, Past Christian Brothers and Redcliffe — the same shared-secondary-venue role played by nearby Oxenham Park in earlier decades. Norths' best-recorded performance there came on 11 August 1963, a 54-9 win over Past Christian Brothers. This appears to be a genuinely third, distinct Nundah ground rather than an alternate name for either of the other two Nundah venues in this directory: Rugby League Project catalogues it as its own separate venue with its own match records, and its usage window (1959 into the 1970s) both starts after Oxenham Park's well-documented 1930s-1950s heyday and overlaps with, rather than ending at, Norths' 1969 move to Bishop Park (now Premiers' Park) — meaning it cannot simply be an earlier name for that ground either, since both hosted fixtures concurrently in 1969-1970. No independent heritage or council source describing Nundah Oval's exact site, capacity or eventual fate was found, so this write-up rests solely on Rugby League Project's match-record evidence for the venue's existence and distinctness.
