Farnham Town FC: Historic Club’s Evolution and Recent Success Stories
A Century-Old Community Club Making Strides
Farnham Town FC, a semi-professional football club based in Farnham, Surrey, currently competes in the Southern League Premier Division South. The club has established itself as a cornerstone of the community with over 100 years of rich history.
Recent Developments and Success
The club has experienced significant success in recent years, winning the Premier Division South title and earning promotion to the South Central Division of the Isthmian League. Their impressive performance continued as they secured the South Central Division championship, leading to their current position in the Southern League Premier South Division.
Stadium Improvements and Infrastructure
The club’s home, the Memorial Ground, holds special historical significance as it was originally home to Farnham United Breweries before being gifted to the town in 1947. In an exciting development, April 2025 saw the club receive permission for a significant expansion, with plans for a new 700-capacity stand that will increase the ground’s total capacity from 1,500 to 2,200.
Current Season and Community Engagement
The team is actively competing in the 2025/26 season, with their next home fixture scheduled against Sholing on Saturday, September 6th. The club has maintained strong community ties, recently renewing their partnership with PizzaExpress for the 2025/26 season.
Local Rivalries and Support
Farnham Town maintains several passionate local rivalries, including the heated ‘Coxbridge Derby’ with Badshot Lea FC and the ‘A31 Derby’ with Alton FC. The club also shares competitive relationships with nearby teams including Aldershot Town FC, Hartley Wintney FC, and Fleet Town FC.
The club continues to seek community involvement and is actively looking for volunteers to assist with day-to-day operations. Interested individuals can get involved by contacting the club through their community email address.
