Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox football club

Brocton Football Club is a football club representing Brocton, near Stafford, England. They are currently members of the Шаблон:English football updater and play at Silkmore Lane in Stafford.

History

The club was formed in 1937 after the owner of the Chetwynd Arms pub, Arthur Mayer, gave a football to local boys and asked them to establish a club.[1] In 1946–47 they won the Rugeley & District League. After winning the league again the following season, they moved on to the Cannock Chase League. The club were champions of the new league in 1954–55, before going on to win the title again in 1954–55, 1956–57, 1957–58, 1960–61, 1973–74 and 1977–78.[1] The next step was to move up to Division One of the Staffordshire County League (South). They were runners-up in 1982–83, and after finishing second again the following season, the club were promoted to the Premier Division, where they finished as runners-up in 1985–86.[1]

In 1991 Brocton joined the Staffordshire Senior League, which became the Midland League in 1994.[2] In 2003 the club transferred to the Premier Division of the Midland Combination. After winning the Premier Division in the league's final season, they became members of the Premier Division of the new Midland League, which was formed by a merger of the Midland Combination and Midland Alliance.[2] They finished second-from-bottom of the division in 2016–17 and were relegated to Division One.

At the end of the 2020–21 season Brocton were transferred to Division One South of the North West Counties League. They finished fourth in the division in 2022–23, qualifying for the promotion play-offs, in which they lost 3–1 to Sandbach United in the semi-finals.

The club originally played at the Chetwynd Arms Ground in Brocton, but had to move to the Rowley Park Stadium in Stafford to meet the requirements of the Staffordshire Senior League.[1] In 2002 they relocated once again to the Cannock Sports Stadium in Cannock in order to have a floodlit ground, but left in 2004 after the Council failed to confirm their tenancy. After two years sharing with Heath Hayes at the Coppice Colliery Ground, the club gained a 30-year lease on the Old Police Sports Ground in Silkmore Lane in Stafford.[1] The ground includes a 100-seat stand.
