Club History
Faringdon Town Football Club was officially founded in 1906 when it was accepted by the Berks & Bucks Football Association, to enter its competitions; however historical records shows that football was being played in the town during the late 1800’s. The club's first competition victory came in 1908/1909 season when Town lifted the North Berks Cup when we beat Radley 3-0 at Abingdon Town in front of nearly 1000 spectators!
In 1909, the North Berks League was set up, which had four area divisions in Abingdon, Wallingford, Wantage & Faringdon. However, it wasn’t until the 1931/1932 season that Faringdon were crowned league champions, with a record of 8 wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats from 14 matches played, with 37 goals scored and 20 conceded, finishing one point ahead of MG Sports.
To celebrate the clubs centenary in 2006, a number of events were held including a football match against the North Berks Football League, a presentation certificate by The FA and a celebration dinner with 300 guests, held at Tucker Park.
Over the years Town have challenged for many trophies but have often fallen at the final hurdle, however the records show that the club have won all of the North Berks competitions, during theirr existence, with one of the most successful seasons being the 2009/2010 season with the club winning the inaugural North Berks Centenary Cup, North Berks Charity Shield and the Faringdon Thursday Memorial Cup.
With the youth section becoming integrated into the main football club along with Charter Standard accreditation, the future of Faringdon Town Football Club is very positive. The club are hoping to progress further with improvements to the changing facilities and our Five Year Plan.
