Goodwin Park is a multi-sport venue located at Brisbane, Australia. It is home to Olympic FC.

History[]

During the 2010–11 Queensland floods, Goodwin Park was submerged with the playing field virtually being destroyed. The Queensland Government handed out payments to sporting clubs that were affected by the floods, with Olympic FC receiving money to help rebuild the playing field and dressing rooms.

Goodwin Park hosted the 2013 National Premier Leagues Queensland grand final, contested by Brisbane City and Olympic FC. The match ended in a draw after 120 minutes, with Kazuya Ito calmly placing a delicate panenka into the back of the net and Danny Byrne sealing a penalty shootout victory in front of a rapturous crowd.

Goodwin Park also plays host to the mighty City 5 team, who draw inspiration on a weekly basis from the midfield shenanigans of Thibault Berthier. Berthier was signed to the City 5 team after an ill-fated stint with the Orcas, signing for a club record of $118.

Thibault is now a drunken mess due to Olympics continual failure at the NPL Grand Final
