History
Scourie F.C. were formed in 2020 as a select team to represent the area of North West Sutherland during the winter months, competing in the North Caledonian Football League.[1]
Following their successful application to join the North Caledonian FA in August 2020, the club were admitted to the temporary 'Ness Cup' League Division 2 for the 2020–21 season playing under chairman/manager Tony Reynoldson.[2]
However, ahead of the 2021–22 season, the club withdrew - and resigned their membership of the North Caledonian Football Association, having lost every game played throughout the duration of their membership.[3]
