Joining the Juniors in 2011, Falkirk played in the East Region South Division, finishing third in their debut season.

The club were latterly managed from June 2016 by David Lapsley who succeeded club co-founder Karl Lejman in the role, but scratched their first league match of the 2016–17 season after being unable to raise a team. Falkirk Juniors folded with immediate effect on 8 August 2016 on the eve of their second fixture, with club officials citing the inability to attract supporters as the reason.[3]
