SCOTLAND: Queen's Park FC (B) (1924-1992, 1994-2025) / Queen's Park FC (1992-1994, 2025-)

Lesser Hampden, Glasgow (Queen's Park FC, formerly B ground of Queen's Park FC)

Scotland, county: Lanarkshire

17 II 2020 / Queen's Park FC Reserves - BSC Glasgow Reserves 2-2 / SPFL Reserves' League 2

Note - Lesser Hampden, the annex to Hampden Stadium, was inaugurated in 1924 as Queen's Park FC's side pitch, used for lower team matches and training purposes. While Hampden Stadium was undergoing renovation in the early 1990s, Queen's Park played its first team matches at this ground as well. After the club's lease on Hampden Stadium ended in early 2021, Queen's Park FC moved to groundsharing with Falkirk FC at Falkirk Stadium (second half of the 2020-21 season), subsequently with Partick Thistle FC at Firhill Stadium (2021-22), and lastly with Stenhousemuir FC at Ochilview Park (2022-23). After a new spell at Hampden Stadium (2023-25), the club eventually settled at a completely refurbished Lesser Hampden, after bringing the ground up to league standards.
