The Old Bristolians Sports Club...An Introduction
The Old Bristolians’ Sports Club is a multi-disciplinary sports club based in Failand, just on the outskirts of Bristol. It comprises of three sporting sections; Rugby, Hockey and Cricket. Originally formed from the former pupils of Bristol Grammar School, each section has subsequently opened their doors to all, in order to increase membership numbers and sustain the sporting clubs. Please see below for links to the respective club websites.
The Old Bristolians’ Sports Club acts as the management organisation for the facilities at the ground. The ground itself, its buildings and amenities are owned by the Old Bristolians’ Society, which heralds from former pupils of Bristol Grammar School. In order to facilitate and maximise usage of the sports field and the clubhouse, the Sports Club was formed in order to govern and manage the clubhouse, the bar, and the paying surfaces.
CLUBHOUSE REDEVELOPMENT
The current clubhouse has been on the site in its current form since the 1970s, and whilst it has served its’ members extremely well during that time it is in need of updating and redevelopment. To drive this project forwards we have designed and developed plans for a new and improved clubhouse. Based on the original but subject to significant extension on three sides, the intention is to deliver a clubhouse that can provide excellent and leading sporting facilities for the next 40 years. Please follow the links to the right to view the plans for our intended development.
