The West of Scotland Cricket Club Needs your help

The West of Scotland Cricket Club is not only the home to the West end Garden Centre but is a truly iconic and historical sporting venue. Cricket has been played here since 1862, and the club continues to field teams of all ages and levels. In addition, the ground hosted the first-ever international football match between Scotland & England 150 years ago on 30/11/1862. The ground is one of only two that has hosted international games in 4 different sports, the others being rugby & hockey.

The current pavilion was built in 1922 and needs essential repair, having suffered a significant flood in January 2021. With this in mind, the club, a registered Community Sports Club ( eligible for gift aid donations), is currently raising money to meet a shortfall in the projected costs of the repair & renovation of its historical pavilion and insurance receipts. Support is required to preserve this important facility in Glasgow and help to guarantee its future for the next 160 years.
