Olivers Mount was the home ground of the original Handsworth, but it failed a ground grading test in 2012 which resulted in the club being relegated from the Northern Counties East League. Parramore Sports played at Sandy Lane in Worksop, which they bought after Worksop Town were evicted in 2008. After the merger in 2014, the club's first team played at Sandy Lane (which Worksop Town had returned to as tenants), while reserve and youth team games were played at Olivers Mount. The first team moved to Olivers Mount in 2020. [4]
