Olympic Park Stadium was a multi-purpose outdoor stadium located on Olympic Boulevard in inner Melbourne. The stadium was built as an athletics training venue for the 1956 Olympics, a short distance from the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground), which served as the Olympic Stadium.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=author= )〕 Over the years it was the home of rugby league side, Melbourne Storm and the A-League team, Melbourne Victory; throughout its life the stadium played host to athletics. Olympic Park Stadium was located in Olympic Park, which is part of the Melbourne Sports and Entertainment Precinct. Olympic Park Stadium was demolished in 2011, and replaced with an Australian rules football ground. This new ground has been used by the Collingwood Football Club for training purposes, it being adjacent to the Westpac Centre. ==Former usage== The stadium was one of the largest in Victoria primarily suited to a rectangular configuration, which made it ideal for hosting rugby league, rugby union, soccer and gridiron matches. Whilst the larger Etihad Stadium and Melbourne Cricket Ground stadiums also support rectangular configuration, due to their oval shaped grounds, viewing conditions are less ideal. The larger 30,050 seat rectangular stadium (sponsored name AAMI Park) adjacent to Olympic Park Stadium was completed in May 2010. The stadium had lighting suited for night athletics meets as well as a world standard athletics track that was refurbished in 1997, with the stadium last being redeveloped in 1998. The athletics track was refurbished again in 2010 for the national championships. Until 2009, the stadium was home of the (NRL) team, the Melbourne Storm. It served as the home of Melbourne Victory (A-League) home games for two seasons (2005–2007). Olympic Park had a capacity of 18,500 spectators with 11,000 seats.〔(Austadiums - Melbourne Olympic Park )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Olympic Park Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
