Dundee West Football Club is one of the most respected clubs in the Dundee &
District Youth Football Association and was established in 1985. The club started
out with a small group of players who had previously played with the
Dundee West Labour BC who had disbanded in 1984. Another Sunday
Boys team East End Boys joined in the same year thus forming the
First ever Dundee West Football teams. A committee was formed
which took these players into the U/11 and U/12 leagues
Every year thereafter a new Dundee West side was started and by
1995 the club enjoyed a team in every age group of the Dundee
based league. Today the club has players between the ages of 8 to
19 playing across 10 different age groups. The club has it’s own
Clubrooms and changing facilities and we strive to have the provision
Of indoor training during the winter months.
The West have won many leagues and cups over the years, the most
notable being the winning of the Scottish Cup which was achieved by
the U/17 girls team in 2006/07 having lost narrowly in the final the
Previous year. The U/16 boys team also contested the Scottish cup
Finishing runners up in 1994/95.
Many other talented players have played for the West and have gone
on to become professional footballers. Other players ,of course are
