Highland League Admittance
Huntly Football Club were unanimously accepted for League admittance at the league’s AGM in June 1928 entering the Highland League in season 1928/29 when their first game was against Inverness Thistle at Inverness on Saturday 25th August 1928. The Home side won the match 2-1. In a report in one of the
Inverness papers, mention is made of the good impression Huntly had made on their first appearance in Inverness.

First Silverware
In their second season, Huntly won their first Highland League title in 1929/30 under player-coach Jock Edwards.
Huntly became only the third team (after Buckie Thistle – 3 times and Aberdeen A) outside Inverness to win the league finishing two points ahead of closest rivals Elgin City & Inverness Thistle.
