Dundee North End Football Club are a Scottish junior football club based in the city of Dundee.

Their strip (uniform) colours are maroon home kit and light blue away kit.

The team have been managed since October 2022 by former Cardiff City player Kevin McNaughton and former Dundee and Dundee United player Lewis Toshney. Under McNaughton and Toshney, North End won the Quest Engineering Cup in 2023.[1] Going one further the following season, McNaughton and Toshney led the Dokens to the 2023–24 Midlands League title.[2] The title win qualified North End for the 2024–25 Scottish Cup, and led the club in its first ever Scottish Cup campaign to the third round before being defeated in a close-fought match against Scottish Championship side Airdrieonians at a sold-out North End Park.[3]
