A Drumchapel social club has officially revealed it's brand new look after a three-year refurbishment project.
The Goodyear Sports and Social Club marked the occasion with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday, 21 February 2026.
The honours were carried out by the club’s oldest member, Owen Herity, alongside current snooker champion Martin Kelly.
Club spokesperson Andy Bell, speaking on behalf of the committee and trustees, said they were delighted with the backing they had received to see the project through.
He praised the support that helped deliver the refurbishment of the darts area, the new small lounge and the upgraded snooker facilities.
Members and the wider local community are now looking forward to accessing and making use of the new spaces.
The project has taken more than three years to complete, with committee members citing significant challenges facing the hospitality sector, including rising operating costs and wider financial pressures.
The club has paid tribute to local tradespeople and volunteers for their “fantastic support” in delivering the improvements, and also thanked members for their patience and fundraising efforts during the work.
As a registered charity, the Goodyear Sports & Social Club SCIO also acknowledged grant support from the Glasgow North West Area Partnership Committee towards the creation of the new community-focused facilities.
A club statement added: “Even the slightest progress proves the impossible is changing,” and described the refurbishment as a positive outcome for hospitality during a challenging trading period.
Anyone interested in the club’s existing or newly refurbished facilities can contact the Goodyear Sports & Social Club on 0141 944 6869 or via its Facebook page.
