Gold Collar

The Gold Collar is a greyhound racing competition held annually. It was inaugurated in 1933 at Catford Stadium.

Following the closure of Catford in 2003 the competition switched to Belle Vue Stadium but only lasted until 2009 when it was discontinued. Six years later the competition was resurrected by Crayford Stadium.
