Irvine Meadow XI

Irvine Meadow XI are a Scottish football (soccer) club, from Ayrshire. Formed in 1897 they are one of the older Ayrshire Junior clubs still playing. Of the two football clubs in Irvine[?] (the other being Irvine Victoria[?]) they are the larger. Indeed, they are traditionally one of the biggest Junior clubs in Scotland, but have not been as successful in recent years as they once were.

Meadow have set many attendance records at other Junior club's grounds and were at one stage invited to turn senior and play in the Scottish Football League. They decided to remain in the 'juniors' and at present compete in the Western Region Junior League.

They are based at Meadow Park and play in blue.
