The Fox and Goose Sports Ground was a sports ground attached to the Fox & Goose public house (now demolished) in Coalville, Leicestershire.

Many sports events were held there and there were two first class cricket games completed at the ground. The home team being Leicestershire County Cricket Club and the away team on both occasions, being Worcestershire County Cricket Club. Leicestershire won both games.

The games were held in 1913 and 1914.

The area is now being redeveloped.
