Glenrothes Football Club are a Scottish junior football club based in the new town of Glenrothes, Fife. Formed in 1964 and nicknamed "Glens", they play their home games at the Warout Stadium, one of the larger grounds in junior football, with room for around 5,000 spectators, 730 of whom can be seated. Their strip (uniform) colours are red, with a white trim.

They were members of the Fife Junior League, but are presently competing in the East region of which they, along will all Fife junior clubs became a part in 2002. They were relegated from the East Super League (the top division in their region) in season 2005-06, finishing tenth out of twelve clubs; however, they returned to the top flight in 2007 after clinching the Premier League 2006-07 title.

Glenrothes' greatest success as a club came in 1975 when they won the Scottish Junior Cup. They were runners-up in 1968, an impressive achievement given that they had only been formed a mere four years beforehand.
