Although a form of 'mob' football had been played in the town, the association game was introduced to Aberfeldy by bank clerks, with the first club being called Breadalbane Rangers; one of the founders was a clerk named Fisher, who had played for a club of the same name in Edinburgh in 1875.

[3] The club entered the Scottish Cup from 1882–83[4] to 1885–86 but only played one tie; a 7–0 defeat to Vale of Teith in 1884.

Twice the club lost 10–0 to Falkirk, the first tie in 1923 seeing Syd Puddefoot score five goals,[7] although the club made £100 simply by selling the right to host the tie to the Bairns.

The club has the unenviable record of most appearances in the first round proper of the Cup without scoring a goal, with six.

Since then it has been in the Perthshire Amateur League, winning the title three times, most recently in 2005–06.
