Home Ground
The region's ground is the 11,676 capacity Rodney Parade ground in Newport, with an agreement between owners Rodney Parade Limited and the region in place for all regular season games to be played there. Along with Rodney Parade, the region has also played pre-season games at Pontypool Park and Pandy Park, Cross Keys RFC but this has not occurred since playing a Gwent Premiership XV prior to the 2006–2007 season.

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or ground:
“However patriarchal the world, at home the child knows that his mother is the source of all power. The hand that rocks the cradle rules his world. . . . The son never forgets that he owes his life to his mother, not just the creation of it but the maintenance of it, and that he owes her a debt he cannot conceivably repay, but which she may call in at any time.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“The democrat is a young conservative; the conservative is an old democrat. The aristocrat is the democrat ripe, and gone to seed,—because both parties stand on the one ground of the supreme value of property, which one endeavors to get, and the other to keep.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
