Toorak Park

Toorak Park is a cricket and Australian rules football arena located in the Melbourne suburb of Armadale, Australia. It is the home ground of the Prahran Football Club & Old Xaverians Football Club of the VAFA and Prahran Cricket Club, which plays in the Victorian Premier Cricket competition.
