Apache not serving admin static files for django

Before asking my question, I understand that there's a highly rated question about the same issue:Apache not serving django admin static files

However, I've tried the same solution as can be seen below This is my apache conf file:

WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ubuntu/sportsgullyrest/SportsGullyRest/wsgi.py
WSGIPythonPath /home/ubuntu/sportsgullyrest/venv/bin/python2.7

Alias /static/admin /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/admin
Alias /static/ /home/ubuntu/sportsgullyrest/static/
<Directory /home/ubuntu/sportsgullyrest/SportsGullyRest>
    <Files wsgi.py>
        Order deny,allow
        Require all granted
    </Files>
</Directory>

<Directory /home/ubuntu/sportsgullyrest/static>
    Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/admin">
    Order allow,deny
    Options Indexes
    Allow from all
    IndexOptions FancyIndexing
</Directory>

I'm using Django 1.7 and here is my settings file

# Build paths inside the project like this: os.path.join(BASE_DIR, ...)
import os
SETTINGS_DIR = os.path.dirname(__file__)
PROJECT_PATH = os.path.join(SETTINGS_DIR, os.pardir)
PROJECT_PATH = os.path.abspath(PROJECT_PATH)
TEMPLATE_PATH = os.path.join(PROJECT_PATH, 'templates')
STATIC_PATH = os.path.join(PROJECT_PATH, 'static')



# Quick-start development settings - unsuitable for production
# See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/howto/deployment/checklist/

# SECURITY WARNING: keep the secret key used in production secret!

DEBUG = True

TEMPLATE_DEBUG = True

ALLOWED_HOSTS = []

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (

# Database

        ...
    }
}

USE_I18N = True

USE_L10N = True

USE_TZ = False
# Static files (CSS, JavaScript, Images)

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_ROOT = 'static/'
MEDIA_URL = '/static/img/'
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    TEMPLATE_PATH,
)

STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    STATIC_PATH,
)

You must define a STATIC_ROOT setting, something like os.path.join(BASE_PATH, 'staticfiles').

Then, remove the /static/admin/ alias from your Apache conf, make sure that the static alias is pointing to the staticfiles directory, and run ./manage.py collectstatic.
