The team were based at the Groveway Greyhound Stadium until 1988. In 1989 they moved to the new stadium at Elfield Park. However following complaints of noise from a few local residents who phoned regularly to complain (even the day after a scheduled meeting was called off) and falling crowds the track closed in 1992.
