Carnoustie Panmure Youth FC was formed in 1979 as Carnoustie Panmure Boys Club. Since its inception 40 years ago, the club has vastly increased in size, from two sides in the beginning to now having 12 sides in the Youth set-up ranging from 5-year-olds in the Academy up to 19-years-old.

Michael Wells, Chief Executive of Carnoustie Golf Links, said: “We are pleased that both Carnoustie Golf Links and The Rookery are the new sponsors of Carnoustie Panmure Youth FC.

“We wish the teams every success for the season ahead and we hope that this a local partnership we can build on going forward.”
