Invergordon Football Club are a Scottish football club from Invergordon. They compete in the North Caledonian Football League and play at the Recreation Grounds.

Although the exact year the club was formed it is unknown, it is believed to be around the very early 20th century (c. 1910). They have only ever had two homes. Their original ground was the old Blackpark (now part of Invergordon Distillery), before they moved to their current ground.

Invergordon were originally known as the "Maroons" with their first kit donated by Plymouth Argyle. Their colours have been changed on several occasions before settling on the current yellow and royal blue.

The club withdrew from the North Caledonian Football League at the end of the 2013–14 season, but returned for the 2015–16 campaign.
