Perth is hosting a series of friendly games between Australia and India. The fourth and final game is 6pm Thursday evening at Perth Hockey Stadium (next to Curtain Uni).

The skill and speed of these guys is incredible to watch. I was at the game on Saturday and had a great time. Hockey is huge in India compared to here, so don't be surprised if the crowd is a lot closer to 50/50 that a home game in Australia would normally be.

Games are free. Get there around 5:30 to get decent seats.

Loads of parking.

I honestly have no idea why this sport isn't more popular than it is. It's super exciting to see it played live.
Another alternative to sitting in the stands is take a picnic blanket and sit on the grass facing the stand (They play on the blue pitch). You can't see it from the satellite view, but that's a slope.
