Edinburgh United Juniors Football Club is a Scottish Junior football club, formed in 1985. They presently compete in the East Region Premier League and play their home games at Paties Road Recreation Ground in the Colinton area of the city. This ground holds around 2,500 spectators, 200 of whom can be seated in the fairly well developed stand at the site. Edinburgh United play in black and white strips and usually attract a home following somewhere between 50 and 100 spectators.

Edinburgh United are the sole "Junior" club in Edinburgh, with all other "non-league" clubs either playing in the "senior" East of Scotland Football League or the Lowland Football League.

The team was managed since August 2015 up until January 2016 by former Hearts and Raith Rovers player Calum Elliot.[1]
