Inverkeithing United F.C.

The club began as a Juvenile side, Inverkeithing Renton, in 1906. The team won their first honours with the Fife Juvenile Cup in 1910–11.^[1] Inverkeithing Renton changed their name to Inverkeithing United when stepping up to the Junior grade in 1912.^[2] The club won the Scottish Junior Cup in their debut season at this level, defeating Dunipace Juniors 1–0 at Firhill Park, Glasgow in front of a crowd of 9,564.^[3] They were the first club from Fife to win the Junior Cup, and remained the only one to do so until St Andrews United triumphed in 1960.^[4]

The club played on through World War I using scratch sides drawn from military personnel, then enjoyed local success in Fife before going into abeyance in 1927 due to ground issues. Re-joining in 1929, the club continued to pick up local honours but closed down for a second time at the beginning of World War II.

Inverkeithing United reformed as a Juvenile side after the war, but only played one further season at Junior level in 1958–59.^[5] The club closed completely in 1963.^[3] Their Ballast Bank ground was used many years later by another Junior side, Dunfermline Jubilee Athletic, who arrived from Cowdenbeath in 1973 and left for Pitreavie Stadium in 1989.^[6] Jubilee are a predecessor of the current Rosyth.

In 2017, the club was reformed and gained accreditation from the SFA. The team provides a community pathway for U5 to U17 football players. Their current mission statement is to "develop footballers to be the best they can be in a fun, enjoyable and challenging environment".^[7]
