Parkvale F.C.
Founded in 1898, Parkvale's origins were in the Kittybrewster district of Aberdeen where the team played at Central Park. The club moved on to Linksfield Stadium which they shared with fellow Junior sides, Lewis United and Mugiemoss. With a planned redevelopment of this facility lessening the number of available pitches, Parkvale moved again in 1994 to Findon Park on the outskirts of Portlethen, seven miles south of Aberdeen. This ground was the original home of another Junior side Bon Accord, who moved to a purpose-built ground in Old Aberdeen, less than two miles from Parkvale's original Kittybrewster home (it later became home to Bridge of Don Thistle). To this day, the Parkvale F.C. Supporters Social Club is situated on King Street in Aberdeen city centre. In their final season, the club finished 6th in the 2015–16 North First Division (East).
Parkvale won the following honours in the game:
- North East Premier Division winners: 1973–74
- Aberdeen & District Junior League winners: 1908–09, 1950–51
- North East Division One winners: 1982–83
- North Region Division One winners: 2004–05
- North Region Division Two winners: 2010–11
