history6.jpg

Mildenhall Town FC are a long-established club formed in 1898. The football club has been an integral part of East Anglia and the local area for generations.

​Brian Hensby a supporter and club secretary for over fifty years can remember ground sharing with the cricket team where the square was within the centre circle. Also, stories of Mildenhall players in the 1920s getting changed in the local town hall before each home game. The team was then walked to the ground with a band playing in front of them.

The early years are vague, but it is known the club won the Suffolk junior cup as long ago as 1899/1900 when they defeated Southwold 4-0 in the final.

Our biggest success up until then has to be the 2016/17 season where Mildenhall became double league and cup winners. Finishing the league 9 points clear and winning promotion to the Isthmian league.

The present Mildenhall town fc is a non-league semi-professional football club competing in the Isthmian League - North Division and with Bill Flynn as the chairman and Phill Weavers as the team manager, the stability and future of the club is in good hands.

Under the leadership of chairman Brian Brigden, the club saw a major transformation during the 90s, bringing the ground up to current standards and building the excellent clubhouse. Mildenhall then went through a period of consistent creditable positions in the ECL premier division.

Under relatively new manager Phill Weavers we were champions of Thurlow Nunn Premier League and won promotion to the Isthmian League - North Division.
