The history of the club is often recorded in club trophies but over time many have gone missing. Where are they and what is the story behind them , can you help ?
The club has 6 historical trophies in the collection at the moment – Paul Richfeld Trophy , Patrick Bannon Trophy ,John Howieson Trophy ,Shettleston Marathon Trophy, Allan Scally Relay Male and Female Trophies and the Club Novice (Junior) Championship Trophy.

Over the years a number of trophies have gone missing and many of these trophies tell the story of Shettleston Harriers, not only about the great athletes of the club but about all our members.
