Stadium
Karinya Reserve
Adelaide, Australia
Formerly: Karinya Rotary Reserve (partial mention)
Karinya Reserve does not sit at the centre of Adelaide's football map, and it does not try to. It is a suburban ground at 253 Shepherds Hill Road in Eden Hills.
Football arrived through Blackwood Soccer Club, founded in 1977. Today the reserve is home to Sturt Lions FC , who play in the National Premier Leagues South Australia, the state's top division.
Karinya Reserve also does duty beyond match days: Youth Fest, a skateboarding and BMX festival, ran here across 2013, 2015 and 2016, and the site has hosted community forums under banners like "Walking Together Stronger Together." No year of opening is recorded, and no attendance record survives in the archive.
