Whitburn F.C.
Whitburn Football Club are a Scottish football club based in Whitburn, West Lothian. They play their home games at Central Park and currently compete in the East of Scotland League Premier Division
Formed on 31 May 1930 as Whitburn Amateurs F.C., they turned Junior over the summer months of 1934.
Nicknamed The Burnie, the club's colours are claret and amber. The club have won the Scottish Junior Cup on one occasion, defeating Johnstone Burgh on penalties in the 1999–00 final, as well as being runners up on two other occasions losing to Bonnyrigg Rose in 1966, and to Camelon in 1995.

After victories in the Alex Jack Cup and Victory Shield in 2024-25 they qualified for the preliminary round of the Scottish Cup for the first time. On August 9th, 2025 Whitburn defeated Scottish Amateur Cup winners Stein Thistle AFC 3.2 to qualify for the 2nd preliminary round were they will take on Scottish Junior Cup winners Johnstone Burgh for a place in the first round proper.
In 1997-98 season, the side managed by Brian Fairley managed to win 4 trophies in what was a very successful season which also saw 8 players capped for Scotland juniors.
Brian McNaughton was the manager when Whitburn finally lifted the Scottish Cup at the third attempt in May 2000 with Stevie Prior the heroic goalscorer. The team was also managed from 2014 to 2016 by former St Mirren boss Tom Hendrie.
In season 2021-22, Whitburn joined the East of Scotland Senior League, starting in the bottom tier along with the remaining Junior clubs who had resisted the exodus, and Junior football was no more although the club kept the Juniors part in their official name.
