Luncarty Junior Football Club are a Scottish football club based in the village of Luncarty, near Perth, Perth and Kinross. Their home ground is Brownlands Park.

They were formed in 1886 by employees of a local bleachworks and after some years in local Senior football, joined the Junior grade in 1921.

Up until the end of the 2005–06 season, they played in Tayside Division One in the Scottish Junior Football Association's East Region, and they finished second in the division's final season.

This would have seen them promoted into the Tayside Premier League but the SJFA restructured prior to the 2006–07 season, and the Bleachers found themselves in the twelve-team East Region, Central Division. They finished sixth in their first season in the division.

Luncarty played in its first major cup final for 25 years in May 2014, reaching the GA Engineering Cup Final, played at Tannadice Stadium. The Bleachers lost out on penalties to Lochee United after the match finished 1–1.

They club spent a year in abeyance during the 2015–16 season but returned to competitive action in 2016–17 with a new management team of Jon Kelly and Richie Montgomery.
