Back F.C

Back Football Club is a Scottish amateur football club from the Isle of Lewis. Founded in 1933, the team currently plays in the Lewis and Harris Football League

Back play beside the beach at Upper Coll. The facilities, known as the Coll Centre, boast some of the best facilities in the North of Scotland. There is a big hall, the size of five badminton courts, an astro turf pitch and a grass football pitch, as well as the beach across the road. They are named after the district Back and have a large pull from the internal villages.

They have won many trophies since they began, including the highly sought-after Eilean Fhraoich Cup on 20 occasions. Only those who live in the district or have close family are eligible to play in the cup, which gives the players a sense of pride.

Back won the 'big one' in 2004 when they won the Highland Amateur Cup. Clubs from all over the Highlands and Islands compete in this knock-out cup and it is what all the clubs in the region dream of winning.

Since winning the Highland Amateur Cup, the club has struggled at senior level to reach these heights again, but on the junior front they have dominated, with the under-18 side winning the treble in an undefeated season.

Andy Gray, who went on to play for the national side, Scotland, as well as Rangers, Dundee United, Wolves, Aston Villa and Everton, where he won the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, played for the club as a youth.
