Start a Branch - Birmingham City Football Club Official Supporters Club

A GUIDE TO SETTING UP A BRANCH

The aim of the Birmingham City Supporters Club is to organise, in one body, Bluenoses from different places and different backgrounds and in so doing bring camaraderie to the joy of following Blues.

Our supporter clubs are mostly based on geography as they allow fans to travel and enjoy the match together and to meet up to discuss all things Blues.

Please check to see if there is a local club in your area – and if there isn’t why not create one for Bluenoses in your area?

Please note: you will be responsible for collecting membership fees from your branch members, so will be handling money.
