DUNDEE (DENS PARK) 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 helping to construct this page. 

The Scottish city of Dundee had a greyhound track at Dens Park which was situated at 2° 58' W 56° 28' N and first opened for racing on 9th November 1932. Racing continued at the track until 1982. Racing ceased for a period of 12 years before restarting in 1994. This time it was only open for a short period before closing for the final time in 1996. A further track, near to the Dens Park track, was located at the football ground of Tannadice Park.

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
