It was the home stadium of Clyde from 1994 to 2022 and Broomhill for the 2022-23 season, during which the club was rebranded as Open Goal Broomhill. Glasgow City of the Scottish Women's Premier League shared the stadium for the 2020–21 season. The Scottish Rugby Academy for the Glasgow & The West region is based at Broadwood, and it is also home to the Cumbernauld Centurions BMX Club on the National Level BMX track.

Broadwood has staged the final of football's Scottish Challenge Cup on four occasions and Scottish rugby's Finals Day.[6] The stadium has also held international Rugby league.
