HISTORY

The McIntyre League was formed in 1949 when Jack McIntyre presented a trophy to be played for between clubs in the Dunbartonshire area.  The participating clubs in the League are Cardross, Clober, Clydebank & District, Clydebank Overtoun, Dumbarton, Helensburgh and Vale of Leven.

A Junior League was introduced in 1973 and a trophy was presented by local  trade unionist Jimmie Reid.

A Veterans League was formed and the first match was played in 1979.  The participating teams at that time were Cardross, Clober, Clydebank & District, Dumbarton, Helensburgh and Vale of Leven.  In 1986 other clubs applied for membership and were welcomed into the Veterans League.  They were: Balmore, Douglas Park, Dullatur, Hayston, Hilton Park, Kirkintilloch, Lenzie, Milngavie and Windyhill.  The entry of Bearsden in 1987 brought the number up to 16 which was considered to be a maximum.  The league is now known as the Seniors League since 1999.

The 5/8 Knock-out competition was also started in 1979 to be played for by players who were on the fringe of playing for the scratch team.
