Editing Roseau (section)

==Sports and recreation==
In Roseau, there are many opportunities for recreation. Many people seek the tranquility and cool of the Botanical Gardens as a getaway on Sunday afternoons and at lunch. It is a popular venue for local cricket matches and sports training. Football is popular; there are several pitches throughout the city (at [[Newtown, Dominica|Newtown]], [[Potters Ville]], and [[Bath Estate]]), as well as in the sports stadium at Windsor Park.

===Sporting facilities and infrastructure===
There are dedicated sports facilities around the city. Private tennis courts are on High Street; netball and basketball courts abound in the major high schools. These are complemented by community facilities at Goodwill. A dedicated netball and basketball stadium is at Stockfarm near the Dominica State College.

In 2007, [[Windsor Park (Dominica)|Windsor Park]], a cricket stadium which is also home to the [[Dominica national football team]], was completed with a donation of [[East Caribbean dollar|EC$]]33&nbsp;million from the [[government of the People's Republic of China]].

Elsewhere it is not uncommon to find that a section of the street, sidewalk or the beach has been adapted for makeshift games of cricket or football.

Other popular sports include netball, basketball, rounders and (to a much lesser extent) tennis.
