West End Stadium
Griffith, New South Wales, Australia
West End Stadium, Griffith, Australia — opened unknown, 4 rugby league games hosted, home of none confirmed — all four recorded matches were representative, touring or interstate fixtures, not a resident club's home games.
Sourcing caveat: Rugby League Project's own venue page lists 'West End Oval' as this ground's non-commercial name, confirming it is a single Griffith venue known by two names rather than two separate grounds. Griffith's main local club, the Waratah Tigers, is separately documented (via Wikipedia) as playing at Exies Oval / EW Moore Oval, not here — so West End Oval most likely served as a representative or showground venue rather than any club's regular home.

Name history
Rugby league history
A ground in Griffith, New South Wales, on record for four rugby league matches between 1956 and 1979, all involving touring or representative sides rather than a resident club: the Riverina representative team hosted New Zealand Maori (1956) and France (1964), then an AMCO Cup round between Riverina and Wide Bay (1978), before St George beat Manly there in another AMCO Cup fixture in 1979 — the latter drawing the ground's largest recorded crowd, 5,000.
