History

The club was formed in 1886, its first match being a defeat to a Limavady reserve XI,[1] and it was a founder member of the County Derry Football Association and joined the Irish Football Association in 1888.[2] It was associated with the Loyalist community.[3]

Court played in the Irish League for one season in 1901–02, when they finished bottom, and reached the semi-finals of the Irish Cup on three occasions.[4][5]

The club continued at a junior level until the 1958–59 season,[6] but by June 1960 it was defunct.[7]

Colours

The team wore red shirts.[8][9]

Ground

The club's original ground was at Lone Moor Road.[10] It played at Celtic Park (now the Derry GAA stadium) from 1894 to 1900, and at the Brandywell (now Derry City's stadium), on which it erected a pavilion.[11] from 1900.
