Cumbernauld Colts Football Club is a football team from Cumbernauld, Scotland which was formed in 1969.

The senior team competed in the Caledonian Amateur Football League with the club eventually entering the Lowland Football League in 2015.[1]

History

Colts were formed in 1969, and had success as a youth football club in the 70s and 80s, helping develop young footballers such as future Scotland internationals Derek Whyte and Jackie McNamara.[2]

The club had a period of decline in the '90s, due to several of its teams disbanding. It was re-branded in 1999, and built its way back up.

In 2015, the club was awarded full membership of the Scottish FA and was elected to the SLFL.[3]
