David Farrington Park, previously known as Centennial Park, is a football ground in the suburb of Miramar in Wellington, New Zealand. It is used for football matches and is the home ground of both Team Wellington and Miramar Rangers AFC.
In 2009, the grounds name was changed to David Farrington Park as a mark of respect to the local football stalwart who died in 2008.[2][3]
On 16 April, David Farrington Park saw the first OFC Champions League game played in Wellington [4] when Team Wellington beat AS Magenta 7–1,[5] also qualifying Team Wellington for the home and away final against Auckland City FC for the 2017 OFC Champions League title [5] and a chance to play at the 2017 FIFA Club World Cup in United Arab Emirates.
