Henson Park
The inner west sports ground home to the much-loved Newtown Jets.
Overview
Located on the site of a former brickpit, Henson Park is an inner west haven for sports lovers. The park is the home to NRL team the Newtown Jets, who compete in the Premier League (the highest rated NSW state rugby league competition). It also hosts some AFL matches and soccer clubs.
To accommodate the spectators of all this action, there's a 1000-person grandstand, which was built back in 1937. There's also a grassy knoll and large car park, for those who want to watch from the grass or their car.
Other sections of Henson Park include a grass running track, adjacent tennis courts and heaps of green space for visitors to enjoy a picnic or hang session with mates.
The park also has the added benefit of being down the street from The Henson — one of the best pubs in the inner west. Stop by pre- or post-match for a cold one and a feed.
