Club history The club played their first match at the juvenile level on 18 October 1913 on the Links against Montrose Harp, which ended in a 3-3 draw thanks to a hat-trick by Roselea's captain, Dickson. In 1921–22, Roselea continued playing at the juvenile (under-21) level in the Montrose Juvenile League in the 1920's. At this level the club were very successful, winning numerous local juvenile leagues and cups.
