Ern Holmes Oval

  • Profile

    Ern Holmes Oval is a seasonal grass track located in the Sydney suburb of Pennant Hills.

    The athletics track is marked during summer for use by Little Athletics, with the venue also being used extensively for AFL in winter and cricket in summer (with a turf wicket at the centre of the field).

    The venue was previously known as Pennant Hill Oval No.2, but was renamed after the late Ern Holmes in 1989 in recognition of his lifetime contribution to sport in the Pennant Hills area in general and Australian Rules Football in particular.

    The venue is managed by the Hornsby Shire Council.
