Ball rolling on Orkney FC

The creation of an Orkney Football Club has taken a huge stride forwards, after an open meeting in Kirkwall last night unanimously agreed to forge ahead with the plans.

A meeting is now due to be held on Monday evening to officially affiliate the club to the North Caledonian Football Association, with Orkney FC set to compete in the forthcoming North Caledonian Cup competition, which is played in the winter months after the internal Orkney football season has ended.
