Located on Leckview Lane, by the banks of the River Swilly in Letterkenny, it is the home ground of Letterkenny Rovers.[4][5][6][7][8] It is also close to the county's largest multi-screen cinema complex at Leckview Lane on Letterkenny's Pearse Road.

Quick facts Address, Location ...

The stadium's name refers to Conwal and Leck in which it is located, and the stadium can be easily viewed through the trees from the similarly named cemetery across the river.[citation needed]

The grounds were officially opened in 1967, after they were bought for 500 pounds. The first match played at Leckview Park was a friendly against Coleraine.[4] The stand at the ground was opened in August 2011 and seats 200.[3] In 2016, the ground hosted an FAI Cup second round match between Letterkenny Rovers and Athlone Town.[2] In May 2022, a new artificial turf pitch costing €500,000 was opened, replacing the club's old practice pitch.[4][9]

The ground has also hosted other games in the community, such as the Adult Disability Services Football for All blitz.[10][11]
