Eriskay FC is an amateur association football club based on the island of Eriskay in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. They compete in the Uist & Barra Amateur Football Association league.
History Eriskay FC was established in 1960 by local fishermen. The club features one of the smallest player selection pools in football, as the playing squad often making up more than 10% of the island's total population (around 150 people).
The team has played in green and white striped kits since their foundation as they were inspired by Celtic FC. After their foundation, the club began playing in a Sunday league, leaving time for mass in mornings.
The club enjoyed its most success during the 1960s.
Ground The club plays its home matches at Cnoc Na Monadh. In 2015, FIFA designated the ground one of the world's eight most unique football pitches.
