Jewish Guild

The Jewish Guild is a social and sporting club in suburban Johannesburg, South Africa, founded in the late 19th century.

[2][3] In 1960, the Old Arcs (founded 1897) asked Jewish Guild to run their football team.

The following season, 1970, they ran away with the championship with a nine-point margin over runners-up Durban Celtic in the era of two points for a win.

Thus Jewish Guild were promoted to the highest level of South African association football in the days of apartheid in the whites-only league.

[4] Today, the Jewish Guild is located in Linksfield, a suburb of Johannesburg and participates in lawn bowling competitions.
