History

Located in the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara village of Uitvlugt, the ground first played host to top–level domestic cricket in the 1997–98 Red Stripe Bowl when Barbados played Canada. Between 1997 and 2009, the ground played host to nine one-day matches; however, these were all neutral fixtures which did not feature Guyana. [2] Guyana did play two first-class matches at the ground against a touring India A side in November 1999, and a touring South Africa A team in September 2000. In between these two matches, the West Indies Under-23s played a first-class match there against the touring Pakistanis. [3]

As a football venue, it is the homeground of Den Amstel FC, who play in the GFF Elite League. [1] The ground has played host to two matches in the 2001 Caribbean Cup, with Cuba playing Saint Martin and Dominica. [4]
