On Sunday 25th of May 2025 we will be celebrating the winning of the Scottish Junior Cup 25 years ago, on 28th May 2000.

We are hosting a special dinner celebration hosted by John Mckelvie and guest speaker Frank McAvennie, with a few words from some ex-players and supporters.

We have invited the squad and management team from that occasion to attend.

We will have a limited amount of tickets available for this special day. Cost will be £35 per ticket and is open to anyone .

Click here for a trip down memory lane, starting with match reports charting the Road to Glory.

also, match programs from Irvine Meadow, Pumpherston, Benburb and Johnstone Burgh games,

and local and national newspaper clippings from before the final and after the final.

More articles will be added in the coming weeks.

Whitburn Junior Football Club have launched a Gofundme page to raise funds to make the necessary park improvements to obtain our SFA license and to apply for that license.

Having gained promotion from the lower leagues in each of the past three years, we aim to raise £10,000 using crowdfunding. Without this licence we will not be able to gain further promotions or participate in the Scottish Cup.

The team is part of Whitburn Community Sports Club with over 250 footballers covering all ages from under 6s to seniors. The club also hosts charity football matches and local Civic Week sporting events, as well as other non -sporting events.

The club is ambitious, and plans to upgrade the facilities at our home ground, Central Park, to be able to compete at a higher level in the near future. The Community Club and others would also benefit from improvements.

£10,000 will cover the cost of the licence application and the initial ground improvements needed to meet the licence criteria. Anything raised above this will go towards further ground improvements.

If you decide to donate, thanks for joining our team and helping us on our journey.

Please note:

When you make a donation via Gofundme, a “tip” is automatically added to the amount you donate. This tip goes to the Gofundme platform. If you do not wish to pay this tip, use the slider to change the amount to 0, or whatever value you wish.

Gofundme take a small percentage from every donation to cover administration costs. This means the Football Club will not receive the full amount you donate. If you want to make sure the full amount goes to the club, you can make a direct bank transfer to the club instead of using Gofundme. If you choose to do this, please state "crowdfunder" as the reference.

Whitburn Junior 100 Club

The winner of the March draw is Robert Jeffrey.

The 100 Club is an easy way of helping your club. You only need to provide details once, then you can forget about it.

All we are asking is that you commit to a regular payment of at least £5 per month. That's just £1.25 per week, less than the cost of a pie at the game or a drink in the club.

We prefer payment to be made by standing order which allows the committee to concentrate on other tasks, but we will accept cash payment if you prefer.

All 100 Club members are entered into a monthly draw for a cash prize, the amount being dependant on the monthly income - as membership increases, so does the prize money.

If you would like to join, please get in touch. Link to the contact form is below.
