===Sporting teams===

Parramatta is the home of several professional sports teams. These teams include the [[Parramatta Eels]] of the [[National Rugby League]] and [[Western Sydney Wanderers FC|Western Sydney Wanderers]] of the [[A-League]]. Both teams formerly played matches at [[Parramatta Stadium]] that has since been demolished, and replaced with the 30,000-seat [[Western Sydney Stadium]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://infrastructure.nsw.gov.au/projects-nsw/western-sydney-stadium.aspx|title=Infrastructure NSW : Western Sydney Stadium|last=NSW|first=Infrastructure|website=Infrastructure NSW|language=en|access-date=2018-10-25}}</ref> Parramatta Stadium was also home to the now dissolved [[Sydney Wave]] of the former [[Australian Baseball League (1989–99)|Australian Baseball League]] and [[Parramatta Power SC|Parramatta Power]] of the former [[National Soccer League]]. The newly built Bankwest Stadium opened its gates for the community on 14 April 2019 with free entry for all fans. Located on O’Connell Street, the stadium is in proximity of the Parramatta CBD. The opening sporting event was the 2019 Round 6 NRL clash between Western Sydney rivals the Parramatta Eels and Wests Tigers on Easter Monday 22 April. The Eels won the match by a score of 51–6. It is being predicted that the new stadium will boost Western Sydney economy by contributing millions of dollars to it.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://bankweststadium.com.au/western-sydney-business-chamber-bankwest-stadium-kicks-goals-for-western-sydney-economy/|title=Sydney Business Chamber: Bankwest Stadium kicks goals for Western Sydney economy|website=Bankwest Stadium}}</ref>
