 Formed in 1936, they are nicknamed "the Gowfers" due to the town's well-established links to the sport of golf ("gowf" in Scots).They play at Laing Park, to which they moved in 2004, having previously played at Westfield Park.The club received significant investment in the late 1990s, which has allowed them to emerge as one of the stronger Tayside clubs participating in the East Region.
