Alness play their home games at Dalmore Park, previously on a grass pitch but in 2022 they moved to a new artificial turf pitch with floodlights adjacent to Alness Academy.[1]

They were given the Scottish Football Association's prestigious Quality Mark Development Award in July 2011.

United took a year out in 2019–20 but returned to the North Caledonian League the following season,[2] winning the one-off Division Two as the league split for the 2020–21 season to reduce fixtures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
