History
editWith the introduction of the bauxite mining industry to Jamaica in the late 1950s and mid 1960s, a number of sports and social club's were constructed for their employees. The Port Esquivel Sports Club was one such sports and social club, formed for the workers of the nearby Windalco mining operations.[1] The ground played host to two List A one-day matches in the Red Stripe Bowl. The first match was between the University of the West Indies and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in the 2002–03 edition, with the second match being between Jamaica and Canada in the 2003–04 edition.[2]
