Facilities

   
- Forward thinking
  Whilst Croke Park has only recently opened its doors to soccer and rugby, it could be said Oisin have been working in harmony with their sporting counterparts for well over a decade.


  It began back in 1921 when the Old Bedian Society was established. It consisted of "Old Boys" from St Bedes College, Whalley Range who provided teams in both rugby and soccer.

  In 1965 Old Bedians purchased the land and clubhouse in Millgate Lane from Granada TV.
   
   
- From the ashes
  In April 1991 the clubhouse was destroyed when a stolen car was abandoned and set alight next to it. Several months of dispute with insurers over valuation finally ended in success and the Committee set about rebuilding the clubhouse.


  A decision was made to take on board another sport and Oisin GAA accepted the offer. Development moved quickly and land which had previously been unused and other land which was purchased was assigned to Oisin to develop into two playing fields.
   
   
- The envy of our peers
  The final development now boasts facilities which are the envy of clubs both in England and Ireland. A modern clubhouse with changing rooms for eight teams, shower and referee facilities, a function room for up to 120 people and a small members bar.


  We have facilities that have seen Old Bedians host key All-Britain games.

  It is a shining example of how co-operation amongst varying sports can be mutually beneficial.
