Seiffert Oval is a rugby league ground in Queanbeyan, New South Wales that served as the base of the Canberra Raiders for the first seven years of its existence (1982-1989). The ground hosted an 'international' rugby league match in 1988 when an Australian Prime Minister's XIII took on the touring Great Britain Lions, and an ACTRU v British and Irish Lions rugby union match in 1989. It is now used to host games of the Queanbeyan Blues Rugby League club.

The capacity of Seiffert Oval currently stands at 15,000. The ground record crowd was set on 18 June 1989 when 18,272 fans turned out in Round 12 of the 1989 NSWRL season to see the Raiders defeat the Brisbane Broncos 27-6.[1]
