Oxford City are based at Marsh Lane and have grown from local non-league football into a regular Step 2 presence. The Hoops reached the National League and remain one of Oxfordshire’s leading non-league clubs, with a compact ground in Marston and a strong community focus.
The MGroup Stadium, still often known by its long-standing name Court Place Farm, is Oxford City's home in Marston, north-east Oxford. It is a compact non-league ground that has developed around a wider sports and community complex rather than a traditional town-centre football site.
The stadium has a practical Step 2 layout, with the main seated stand and club facilities on one side and a mixture of covered and open standing around the rest of the pitch. It is not a large enclosed bowl, but it is tidy, functional and close enough to the pitch to give a good view from most areas.
Oxford City have played at higher levels recently, so the ground is used to more formal ticketing and matchday operation than some smaller non-league venues. The site is also served by local buses from Oxford station and the city centre, which makes it more accessible by public transport than many grounds outside a city centre.
Away segregation at Oxford City is fixture dependent. For some matches at the MGroup Stadium, segregation is in place and visiting supporters are allocated a specific section of the ground, with stewards directing fans to the correct away area.
Recent away information for segregated fixtures has stated that away tickets can be bought online in advance and that away fans may also be able to pay by cash or card at the turnstiles, although advance online purchase is cheaper. That suggests Oxford can operate both formal away sections and flexible non-league-style admission depending on the fixture.
For lower-risk games, supporters may find the ground is less restricted, but away fans should not assume this. Always check whether the match is segregated before travelling, especially for clubs expected to bring a larger following.

Oxford City is a good public-transport ground compared with many non-league venues. The Number 14 bus runs from Oxford station towards Marston, with Marston Horseman Close listed as the closest stop to the stadium, directly opposite the entrance to Court Place Farm.
Parking close to the stadium can be limited on busy matchdays, so supporters driving should arrive early and follow club instructions. Oxford's city traffic can also be slow, especially around hospital and ring-road routes, so allow more time than the mileage suggests.
For neutral supporters, the seated stand gives the most comfortable view, while standing areas around the pitch offer a more traditional non-league feel. Away fans should check whether segregation is in place, because this will decide whether you can move around the ground or must stay in a designated section.
Oxford City sell tickets online in advance, and recent away information has shown that advance online prices can be cheaper than paying at the turnstiles. Cash and card turnstile payment may be available for some fixtures, but this should always be checked match by match.
For segregated matches, away supporters should buy the correct away ticket and follow the stewarded route into the away section. Buying the wrong home ticket may cause problems if segregation is enforced.
For neutral supporters, seated tickets are the best choice for comfort, while standing tickets suit those happy with a more traditional view around the pitch. For bigger fixtures, online advance purchase is the safest option.
Oxford City operate standard football ground regulations. Supporters should use the correct entrance, follow steward instructions and remain in the correct home or away section where segregation is in place.
For fixtures where segregation is enforced, away supporters should not purchase home tickets or attempt to enter home areas. Ticketing and turnstile rules can change depending on the opposition and expected attendance.
Disabled parking spaces near Main Reception must be booked in advance on matchdays, so supporters should not assume these spaces are available without contacting the club.
Oxford City provide specific marked bays for disabled supporters close to Main Reception at the MGroup Stadium. On home matchdays, these spaces must be booked in advance by contacting the club.
The club has also stated that disabled supporters can claim a free carer ticket, but these tickets need to be manually released by the club. Supporters may need to provide proof of carer status when arranging this.
Because segregation can affect access routes and viewing areas, disabled away supporters should contact Oxford City before travelling to confirm parking, entrance, wheelchair-accessible seating and carer-ticket arrangements.
Regular public stadium tours are not normally advertised at the MGroup Stadium. Oxford City operate a working football and community sports venue rather than a stadium with a formal public tour product.
Supporters interested in a group visit, community access or special arrangement should contact Oxford City directly, but the normal way to experience the ground is on a matchday.
