Formed in 1935, Old Scotch was a significant contributor to the amateur game in northern Tasmania for many years.  In terms of on-field success, the 1970s and 1980s proved especially productive, with all but one of the club's seven senior premierships being won during those decades.  The exception was the club's breakthrough premiership, won by means of a 9.8 (62) to 7.11 (53) grand final defeat of Old Launcestonians.  Old Scotch also won the now defunct state title twice, beating Claremont in both 1976 and 1980 by 2 and 71 points respectively.
