About Inverness CT FC

Inverness Caledonian Thistle Football Club is a professional football club based in Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. The club was formed in 1994 through the merger of two local Highland League teams, Caledonian and Inverness Thistle, in order to create a stronger unified side capable of joining the Scottish Football League. The new club quickly rose through the divisions and established itself as a competitive professional team, playing its home matches at the Caledonian Stadium.

Throughout its history, Inverness Caledonian Thistle has experienced notable success for a relatively young club. One of its most famous achievements came in 2015 when the team won the Scottish Cup, defeating Falkirk in the final. The club also spent several seasons in the Scottish Premiership, often punching above expectations despite being based in one of the most remote cities in the league system.

In recent years, the club has faced significant financial and sporting challenges, including relegation and entering administration in 2024, which led to a points deduction and major restructuring. Despite this difficult period, Inverness managed to stabilise under new ownership and continue competing in the lower divisions, with ongoing efforts to rebuild both on and off the pitch.
