Nairn County F.C. are a senior football club who currently play in the Highland Football League.
They were founded in 1914 and play at Station Park, Nairn.
As a senior team they can play in the Scottish Cup.
The team colours are gold and black and go by the nickname of the Wee County. Their last league win was in the 1975–76 season, which they won after a play off in extra time against Fraserburgh at Borough Briggs, Elgin.

They have never been the same since fan's favourite Ronnie Sharp was sacked as manager. He is probably the most revered character in Nairn County's history and there were mass demonstrations from the Dolphin Chip shop down to the Tastebud on Harbour Street after his sacking.

Most famous fan is Joe Hollywood, local legend.
