Lindum Sports Club Ground
The ground has held a single first-class match, when a combined Minor Counties team played the touring New Zealanders in 1969.
The ground has also held a single List-A matches. The first List-A match came in the 1974 Gillette Cup when Lincolnshire played Surrey. In 1979, Minor Counties North used the ground as a home venue against Kent in the Benson and Hedges Cup. From 1974 to 2004, the ground hosted 6 List-A matches. The final List-A match held on the ground came in the 2nd round of the 2004 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy when Lincolnshire played Glamorgan.
In local domestic cricket, the ground is the home of Lindum Cricket Club who play in the Lincolnshire Cricket Board Premier League.
In the summer of 2013 Lindum Sports Club gained funding from Sport England and England Hockey to put down an all weather astro-turf pitch. With this new facility in place Lincoln Hockey Club moved to play their matches at the ground, as they used to up to the 1980s when the game of field hockey was played on grass. In 2015, this club merged with Lincoln Roses Hockey Club to form Lindum Hockey Club, another club based at the Lindum Sports Ground, and this new club is now based here.
