Buckie Rovers Football Club are a Scottish football club from the town of Buckie, Moray. After a period abeyance during the 2021–22 season due to organisational difficulties caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in Scotland, the club folded in September 2022. In July 2023 the club restarted and are entered into the Moray and district Welfare League with a view to returning to the junior setup in a couple years time after a rebuilding period.[1]
Rovers withdrew from the league early in season 2004–05 but rejoined the following year. The club used to share a ground with their larger Highland League neighbours Buckie Thistle but are now based at Merson Park in the Buckpool area of the town. The club colours are black and white.
