While several teams played at the Alberton Oval in the ground's early days, it is most famous for being the training and administration base for the Port Adelaide Football Club since it played its first game on 15 May 1880 and defeated the original, now-defunct Kensington Football Club.
Port Adelaide still plays its SANFL games at the ground, although AFL games are played at Adelaide Oval and, between 1997 and 2013, at AAMI Stadium.
All of the club's teams, including its AFL team and its SANFL League and Academy teams, conduct their principal trainings at the ground.
One of the most famous footy grounds in Australia.
