Bridgend Athletic RFC often use the ground for their Division 1 matches, as well as the Ospreys who sometimes play at the ground, including their age grade teams. Bridgend RFCBridgend Ravens moved to The Brewery Field in 1920 after their former home Quarella Ground was acquired for building purposes. The club's first stay at the Brewery Field ended in the 1928 /29 season, when the ground was purchased by a Greyhound Racing Syndicate who organised greyhound racing meetings from 1929 and was still active in 1932. Bridgend RFC returned in 1935 only to go into exile yet again in May 1949 after being evicted after a rugby league team had signed up to take the lease of the ground, but eventually returned in 1957 with the ground in a poor state of repair. Most of the outside fencing was laid to the ground, essential services including water, heating, lighting and drainage were wrecked and needed to be completely re-installed. Other repairs and building work took place over several months and just in time for the 1957 /8 season and the club have remained there ever since. Bridgend Town FCBridgend Town FC moved to the Brewery Field in 2009 after the consortium that the club was part of, purchased the ground. The club had been without a home since leaving Coychurch Road in 2007 to make way for a supermarket development. They had ground-shared with Porthcawl Town F. C. until 2008 and then moved to the University of Glamorgan playing fields in Treforest Industrial Estate. The club played their first game at the Brewery Field in September 2009, when they beat Aberaman Athletic 1-0.
