Three Ws Oval

Cricket stadium in Barbados

About

The Three Ws Oval (also commonly nicknamed the 3Ws Oval) is a cricket field at the entrance of the Cave Hill Campus of the University of the West Indies in Barbados. Mostly known for the sculpture in the shape of three large wickets that stand tall on the incline above the field, the 3Ws Oval was one of the team warm-up venues for the 2007 Cricket World Cup finals, which were played at the nearby Kensington Oval stadium. The 3Ws has undergone a huge redevelopment over the last four years to meet ICC standards.

Situated next to the 3Ws Oval are the dormitories, the CLR James Centre for Cricket Research and the basketball courts at the university's campus entrance. Leading up the hill from the cricket ground is the West Indies Cricket Walk of Fame, which leads up to the gravesites of Sir Frank Worrell and Sir Clyde Walcott.
