St Andrews University F.C.
The University of St Andrews Football Club was formed in the late 19th century at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. The club currently has seven men's and three women's teams participating in the Kingdom of Fife AFA and the BUCS Leagues while also boasting two developmental teams.
The club fully affiliated to the Scottish Football Association (SFA) in 1907, playing senior football until it allowed its membership to lapse in 1939. Since then the university teams have been playing in the local Amateur league.
In the early 20th century the four 'Ancient' Universities (Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow and St. Andrews) were given a bye into the 3rd qualifying round of the Scottish Cup. St. Andrews debuted in 1907 against the Vale of Atholl in front of 1000 spectators at University Park.
The club have appeared in the Scottish Cup proper on three occasions losing 10–1 to Cowdenbeath in 1923, 3–;0 at home to Bathgate in 1929 and 6–1 away to Nithsdale Wanderers in 1930.
There are no records of the club's exploits in the Scottish Amateur Cup, but the university side have won the Fife Amateur Cup on three occasions –1934-35, 1957–58, and more recently in 2018-2019.
A second XI can be traced back to the 1923–24 season, but it is unknown exactly when the club first entered a second team into the Fife Amateur League. However, when they did so it was under the moniker 'United Colleges' in reference to the amalgamation of St Leonard's and St Salvator's Colleges' in 1747. The club have spent most of their time in Divisions 1 and 2. Their most successful season to date was 2003–04 where they were 'promoted' to division 1 via a restructuring of the league and they won the Division 2 Cup, defeating Inverkeithing Swifts in the final 2–1.
The club entered a third team into the Saturday Amateur League for the first time in 2005, under the banner of St. Andrews Academicals. After two disappointing seasons, the club decided to stop fielding Academicals in the Fife League.
The university currently play in the Fife Premier Division while the United Colleges have been disbanded.
