Colony Park Football Club are a Scottish football club from the town of Inverurie, Aberdeenshire. Formed in 1978 as Colony Park Boys Club, they are the largest Juvenile football club in North-East Scotland, running teams from under-7 through to under-19 level. In 2011, they successfully applied for membership of the Scottish Junior Football Association, and joined North Region, Division Two for the 2011–12 season. This has allowed former youth players to continue with the club and bridged a gap between age group football and the Highland League.

Former Colony players include Barry Robson and Darren Mackie.[1]

The Colony Park facility after which the club is named, was opened in 1977 and until 1999 was the home of Inverurie Juniors, the town's previous Junior side.

The Junior team are managed since December 2016 by Richard Davidson, who stepped up from a coaching role under previous manager Andy Roddie.[2][3]

Colony lifted their first honour in the Junior game by winning the 2015–16 North Division One (East) championship, completing the league season undefeated. The club won 19 of their 22 matches and their final day fixture at home to Longside was watched by a crowd of 1,356.[4][5]
