Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground
Lauderhill
Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida, represents cricket's foothold in the United States. This purpose-built cricket venue was developed to serve the growing cricket community in South Florida and has become a significant host for international matches in North America.
The ground features a synthetic turf pitch that offers consistent playing conditions year-round in Florida's tropical climate. With 17 matches in its hosting history, the venue has developed distinct characteristics across formats. In One Day Internationals, the pitch has proven moderately challenging for batsmen, with first innings averaging 205.60 runs and teams batting first enjoying a 60% success rate. However, the surface becomes notably more bowler-friendly in T20 cricket, where first innings scores average just 151.75 runs, yet batting first remains advantageous with an impressive 81.82% win rate for teams setting targets.
The stadium has hosted several historic matches, particularly during the Caribbean Premier League and various international series featuring the West Indies. The venue's significance extends beyond cricket statistics, serving as a cultural hub for the substantial Caribbean diaspora in South Florida.
The atmosphere at Central Broward reflects the passionate cricket culture of the region's international community. With its compact design and enthusiastic crowds, particularly during West Indies matches, the ground creates an intimate yet vibrant environment that brings authentic Caribbean cricket energy to American soil.
