History
Star Hearts
Star Hearts were formed in 1962 and joined the Kirkcaldy and District League in 1963 and won its Second Division at the first time of asking. In 1973 they reached the final of the Scottish Amateur Cup at Hampden Park but were defeated 1–0 by Knockentiber. However, two years later in 1975 they reached the final at Hampden again, and this time were successful in winning the cup by defeating Morriston YMCA by a 2–1 scoreline. In doing so they became the first amateur side from Fife to win the Scottish Amateur Cup. The club won the Fife Amateur Cup a record ten times, and between 1968 and 1976 they reached nine consecutive finals, winning seven of them.
In 1984 the club were founder members of the Kingdom Caledonian Amateur Football Association.
In 2008 their co-founder and former manager David Leitch was presented with the top award (Merit award for services to football) at the Grassroots awards at Hampden Park Glasgow.

In their first season (2013–2014) they finished a highly creditable 5th in league after occupying 2nd spot for many months.
