Abbey Vale F.C.

Abbey Vale Football Club are a football club based in the village of New Abbey in the historical county of Kirkcudbright shire in the Dumfries and Galloway area of Scotland. They started life as an amateur side called Lochvale F.C. in 1971, but as more players joined from the village of New Abbey, the committee decided to change their name and move to New Abbey in 1974. However, to maintain their place in the Dumfries Amateur League, the new side had to maintain the "Vale" in their title, hence the new club became known as Abbey Vale F.C.[1]

Abbey Vale's home strip is a yellow and black hooped shirt with black shorts. Their current manager is Frazer Brolls, long term servant of the club, assisted by Alan Clarke who is player/joint manager.[2]

Abbey Vale can only qualify for the Scottish Cup by winning the South of Scotland League. Their highest position to date was in the 2005–06 season, when they finished third, with 55 points from 26 games.
