GENERAL OVERVIEW
Huish Park is home ground of Yeovil Town F.C.. The current stadium is in the suburbs of Yeovil, having replaced the old Huish ground in 1990. The old ground had a side-to-side slope (similar to Underhill) and is now a Tesco supermarket, which leads to the usual pre-match jokes about trollies rolling down it.

The ground has two seated stands (the Cowlin Stand and the AgustaWestland Community Stand) and two standing ones (the Carlsberg Stand and Blackthorn Terrace, the latter being the away stand). The record attendance at this ground to date is 9,348 v Liverpool on the 4th of January 2004 in the FA Cup Third Round.

Recently, Huish Park played host to an England U18 match. England were playing the Holland U18 team and comfortably won the tie 4-1 with the presence of Daniel Sturridge and Scott Sinclair.
