Beith Juniors Football Club are a junior football club operating in Scotland. They compete in the Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region, and play at Bellsdale Park in the town of Beith in North Ayrshire.

Formed in 1938, they play in black and white strips (uniforms) and their nickname is the Cabes or the Mighty. They were formed as a junior football successor to the disbanded senior side Beith, who had previously competed in the Scottish Football League.

During the 2010-11 season Beith entered the Carling Scottish Cup 1. at the First Round Stage after qualifying as Champions of the West of Scotland Super League Premier Division. In the First Round they defeated Linlithgow Rose FC 2-0 and Glasgow University 8-1, in the Second. In the Third Round they faced Second Division Airdrie United and led 2-0 with 10 minutes remaining of the tie at New Broomfield Stadium, before full back Marc McShane was harshly red carded. To make matters worse, the player who went down feigning injury, Paul Lovering, scored from the resulting cross. Jamie Bain then eqaulised in injury time with the aid of a massive deflection.2.
