Welcome to Hibeernian FC

Hibeernian was formed in the summer of 2006 by users of the fans website "hibs.net"

A few of the users from that site had the desire for a semi regular game of football, nothing more than a kickabout in a park somewhere. The first meeting was arranged for Musselburgh, but unfortunately a poor turn out meant nothing could really be achieved. The next meet up wasn't much better, this time at Meadow Park in Edinburgh. Shortly after a few more get togethers were arranged and thankfully the messages on the website had caught the attention of some more potential players. After a few more weeks there were around 12-16 willing bodies of all shapes and sizes turning up for a kickabout.

One of those first players had a contact connected to a fans team Livingston Golden Shower. A friendly match was enthusiastically arranged and within a few weeks the fledgling Hibeernian had played their first game and recorded an impressive   3-3 draw with Livi GS. Not bad for a bunch who had only met each other a few weeks previously, had never played together, had no design or game plan. It was agreed to have been a reasonable start and the boys decided to look for another friendly. This time the opponents were to be Morningside Victoria FC, a recently formed team of guys who were former pupils of Boroughmuir High school. The Beers recorded an impressive 7-1 victory.

From there some more opposition teams came into the fold, players came and went and today the squad pool is unrecognisable from its founding players. The team have been instrumental in forming the Scottish Supporters Mini League which has its own league cup competition, and also the Scottish Champions League, a Nationwide tournament that brings together 16 teams from 4 different friendly leagues and  replicates the UEFA Champions League that is watched by millions.

The Beers recorded their first league title in 2008, the SSML's 2nd season.
