St. Andrews United F.C. are a Scottish Junior football club based in St. Andrews, Fife. Their home ground is Recreation Park.

The SJFA restructured prior to the 2006–07 season, and United found themselves in the twelve-team East Region Premier League. They currently play in the East Region Superleague.

The clubs greatest achievement was winning the Scottish Junior Cup in season 1959–60, defeating Greenock Juniors 3–1 in front of 34,603 fans at Hampden Park.[1] The club has enjoyed sporadic success since. Average home gates are about 100, with more for big cup ties. The club also has a good away-support, with a band of forty regulars who follow the team across the country.
