The play at New Petershill Park, a modern stadium with a 2000 capacity, including a 562 all seated stand, and currently compete in the West Region of the Scottish Junior Football Association where they share a healthy rivalry with Maryhill. The colours of their strip (uniform) is maroon and white.

An unrelated senior club which participated in the early Scottish Cup seasons, also named Petershill, operated in Springburn from 1877 to 1883, before merging with Northern.
