The Officers Club Services Ground is a cricket ground in Aldershot, Hampshire. The ground was constructed during the expansion of Aldershot into a military garrison. The first recorded match on the ground saw Aldershot Division play Ireland in 1883

Hampshire played five first-class matches at the ground. They first played there in 1905 in a County Championship match against Surrey. The last first-class match to be held there in which Hampshire were the home team was in 1948 against the Combined Services.

The ground has hosted numerous other first-class matches in which Hampshire were not the home team. These matches all had home teams of a military nature with the Army and the Combined Services being the home teams. The ground is still in use to this day with the Army playing matches there.
