The Sydney Football Stadium is located in Moore Park, in Sydney, New South Wales. It was built in 1988 to be the city's premier "rectangular field" for rugby league. It is also now used for soccer and rugby union for major matches and domestic competition.
The Sydney Football Stadium is home to several professional teams:
*Sydney FC A-League football
*Sydney Roosters NRL rugby league
*New South Wales Waratahs Super 14 rugby union
*Wests Tigers NRL rugby league play half their games here
The Sydney Football Stadium usually hosts both NRL semi finals and one preliminary final, and also held the annual pre-season Charity Shield rugby league match between South Sydney and St George Illawarra for a number of years. All NSWRL / ARL Rugby League Grand Finals were played there between 1988 and 1998.
