CLUB HISTORY |
||||
| The history of our club can be traced back as far as 1897 when Bellshill Athletic were founded as a Juvenile club who played at Hawthorn Park. After two successful years as a Juvenile club,
Athletic transferred to Junior level. The area had three other clubs at this time - Bellshill Thistle, Mossend Celtic and Mossend Brigade. These clubs have gone out of existence.
During our early years as a Junior club, our homes includedOrbiston Park, Douglas Park and Brigade Park. Brandon Park, in Bowling Green Street was officially opened as Bellshill's home ground in a friendly against Blantyre Victoria in August of 1903. Read more |
