Mixture of the old & the new

I grew up in Lang road many years ago & visted the old scg weekly in the 60’s & 70s. It was enlightening To see how the scg has re- developed over those 50 years.

Fantastic tour of the SCG!

The tour was something I will never forget! It was amazing to be able to go into the changing rooms where not just Cricket, but legends of all kinds of sports, have graced with their presence. Our tour guide Peter was a wealth of knowledge, and kept us fascinated with the history of the SCG. The visit to the SCG Museum was the icing on the cake - well worth the money!
