TRUMPER PARK
Trumper Park is the spiritual home and primary playing and training ground of the Bats.
Originally Hampden Park Oval, it was built on reclaimed swamp – Glenmore Brook runs down and under its middle. It was named in honour of Viscount Hampden, Governor of New South Wales (1895-99) – Hampden Street alongside the park was originally named Ebenezer Street. The name of park was changed in 1931 to honour one of Paddington’s cricketing heroes, Victor Trumper (1877-1915).
