Lions Gibraltar is an amateur football club in Gibraltar. They play in the country's top level league.

They were created by a merger of Gibraltar United F.C. and Lions FC in 2011.[1]

History

Lions Gibraltar was founded in 1966 when a group of friends decided to take up a team after the euphoria of England winning the 1966 World Cup, thus the three lions on our club badge. In February 2015 the club announced plans to become a feeder club with Premier League club Swansea City.
