Clyde shared Firhill with fierce rivals Partick Thistle from 1986 until 1991, and then Douglas Park with Hamilton Academical until moving to the purpose built Broadwood in 1994.

Plans to complete the stadium, and bring the overall capacity to 10,000 were shelved after Clyde failed to win promotion to the Scottish Premier League in 2004.

It was announced in 2015 that Cumbernauld Colts would play senior games at the stadium having been accepted into the Scottish Lowland Football League.

Scottish Women's Premier League club Glasgow City played at Broadwood for the 2020–21 season due to the unavailability of their regular ground, Petershill Park.

In 2024, Broadwood hosted the Strathclyde Demolition Cup final which saw Drumchapel United defeat Neilston Juniors 3-0.

Work is now underway to create a new purpose-built facility, on-site, with fitness and medical equipment, all part of Scottish Rugby's major policy initiative to develop a regional Academy system that provides the best possible support to players, both male and female, who have been identified as having genuine potential for the future.

The Colts community development programme means that all age ranges use the stadium on a daily basis.

With Colts entering the Scottish Lowland League, Broadwood Stadium will host a second senior club from 2015 to 2016.

In June 2015, The Herald reported that Clyde's preferred option was to return to Glasgow, sharing with Shettleston Juniors.

They entered ground-sharing with Hamilton Academical at New Douglas Park from the start of the 2022–23 season, with a view of relocating to a new home back in Glasgow in the near future.
