The Dundee Sunday League football league is a competition for amateur football teams in Dundee, Scotland. It was founded in 1921 and is currently the largest Sunday league in Scotland, with over 100 teams competing in the league.
History
The Dundee Sunday League was founded in 1921 by a group of local football enthusiasts. The first season of the league consisted of just 10 teams, but the league has grown steadily over the years and now includes over 100 teams.
The Dundee Sunday League has produced a number of professional footballers, including former Dundee United and Scotland internationalist Dave Narey. Narey began his career with Dundee Violet, who were members of the Dundee Sunday League, before moving on to Dundee United and then to Manchester United.
