Hickinbotham Oval (originally Noarlunga Oval) is an Australian rules football oval in Noarlunga Downs, South Australia, a southern suburb of Adelaide. It has been the home of South Australian National Football League (SANFL) club South Adelaide Football Club ("The Panthers") since 1995.
The oval has a capacity of 12,000 people, with seating for up to 1,000 in the Jim Deane Grandstand, named in honor of South Adelaide's 1953 and 1957 Magarey Medallist. The record crowd for Noarlunga is 10,123 attending an SANFL match between South Adelaide and Glenelg on 6 May 1995 - the first SANFL match played at the venue.
Hickinbotham Oval's dimensions are 170m x 140m giving it the widest playing surface in the SANFL.
The venue was renamed from Noarlunga Oval to Hickinbotham Oval in 2005 to honour former Panther and successful property developer Alan Hickinbotham.
In late 2010 the South Adelaide Footbal Club obtained permission from the City of Onkaparinga to install light towers at the oval with the intent to host night SANFL games at the venue. The oval, which is located at the top of a hill, is unlike most other suburban SANFL grounds which are located in among suburban homes and streets (the exception being Elizabeth Oval), is also located away from local residents with plenty of car parking available across Goldsmith Drive (behind the northern goals) in the Centro Colonnades car park. This made gaining permission to install the lights easier as the impact on local residents from the lights and parking was minimal.
The first official SANFL night game was played at the oval on 21 April 2011 with the Panthers defeating Port Adelaide in front of the current night attendance record of 2,700.
