CLYDEHOLM GREYHOUND STADIUM

This site is not an official website for the track shown here and is neither approved or endorsed by the stadium. I am indebted to Richard English for the scans of badges on this page.

 
Situated in the Whitecrook area of north Glasgow, the Clydeholm greyhound track was built around the perimeter of Clydeback Football Club. Greyhound racing first took place in the area in the 1930's with the inaugural meeting taking place on 15th May 1930.

The final meeting took place on 28th November 1963 and the track was demolished and the site redeveloped into a shopping Centre.

This section gives a comprehensive picture of the badges produced by the track throughout the ages, but only provides the briefest of glimpses of its history. For those wishing to undertake further research we can recommend a visit to
