West Park is a cricket ground in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire. The ground was constructed by cricket philanthropist Sir Julien Cahn. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1928, when Sir J Cahn's XI played the touring West Indies in a non first-class match.[1] In 1932 the ground held its first first-class match when Sir J Cahn's XI played the touring South Americans. The ground held two further first-class matches, both of which came in 1935 when Sir J Cahn's XI played Leicestershire and Lancashire.[2] Sir J Cahn's XI last played at the ground in 1941 when they took on a British Empire XI.
