History
Edinburgh United were the sole "Junior" club in Edinburgh for the majority of their time in the Junior leagues, with all other non-league clubs either playing in the senior East of Scotland Football League or latterly the Lowland Football League. Spartans ran a Junior team for four seasons from 2009 to 2013, while Warriston based Craigroyston joined the Junior setup from 2016.[2] Both clubs moved into the East of Scotland League in 2018.
Craig Nisbet was appointed manager in December 2023 after overseeing the under 20's development team previously. He is assisted by Ruaridh Delaney.
Edinburgh United currently also have a youth section catering for ages from 5-16 and play in the youth ESSDA leagues.
