Oakley United F.C. are a Scottish junior football club from Oakley, Fife. Formed in 1904, they play their home games at Blairwood Park. The club's colours are white, maroon and light blue. They presently play in the Scottish Junior Football Association's East Premier League.

They are considered one of the best clubs in Scottish junior football, and in season 2005-06 they won the Fife championship to gain promotion to the East Super League, having been relegated from the same division in season 2004-05.

In recent years Oakley has suffered mainly due to a mass exodus of players at the tail end of season 2006-2007. This led to a disappointing season that ultimately culminated with the relegation from the East Superleague.

2008-2009 The appointment of John Allison as Manager has led to Oakley signing a number of new players with Senior football experience. It is hoped that it will not be long before Oakley are knocking on the door of the Superleague once more.
