History

In 1907 the local Progress Association initiated a move to purchase seven acres of land known as Wilson’s Grant which ultimately became Charles Tucker’s long-desired sports ground -Cheltenham Oval occupies a large part. This left what is now Beecroft Reserve as native bush.

The HK&HDCA has only recently acquired used of this ground (2010/11 season) to play U15 / U16 Junior boys and Seniors Cricket.
