Peterhead F.C. are a football club based in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. They currently play in the Scottish Football League Third Division, following promotion in the 2004–05 season.
Their home ground is Balmoor in Peterhead, with a capacity of 4,000. The current manager is Jim McInally, who was appointed on the 7th October 2011 following the sacking of John Sheran on the 23rd of September 2011. This followed a run of 17 games in which they managed only 1 win.
Peterhead's traditional rivals are the Highland League team Fraserburgh, however since their election to the Scottish Football League, this rivalry has waned somewhat. They now have a new rivaly with Elgin City. On 22 November 2011, Peterhead earned a game against Celtic in the Scottish Cup, which will be held at their stadium, Balmoor. This will be one of, if not the biggest, game ever to be held at Balmoor.
