Memorial Park is a cricket ground in Motueka, Tasman, New Zealand.
Memorial Park is jointly owned by Tasman District Council and Wakatū Incorporation, a company representing 4,000 shareholders who are descendants of the original Te Tau Ihu Māori of the area.[1][2]
The first recorded match held on the ground came in January 1950 when Nelson played Marlborough in the 1950/51 Hawke Cup.[3] The ground later held a single List A match when Central Districts played Otago in the 1987/88 Shell Cup,[4] which Central Districts won by 52 runs.[5] Senior cricket hasn't been played at the ground since.
