Despite not having a home ground for these two seasons, the club were allowed to gain promotion to the North Superleague in 2008. At the end of the 2017–18 season, in which they finished 10th out of 11 in the SJFA North First Division (East), the club announced they had folded due to a lack of committee members and sponsorship. The Shipbuilders received several younger players on loan over the years from nearby Aberdeen F.C. to aid their development, including Alex McLeish, who went on to become Scotland's third most capped international player. Other Dons loanees at Lewis include Duncan Davidson, Willie Falconer, Hugh Robertson and Derek Young. (en)
