Who are Kingstonian FC?
Kingstonian FC was formed in 1919 through the merger of Kingston Town FC and Old Kingstonians FC. However, the club’s origins can be traced back further to 1885 when one of its forerunners, Kingston & Surbiton YMCA FC, played its first match in Bushy Park. The club went through several name changes before splitting in 1908, with Kingston Town playing at Norbiton Sports Ground and Old Kingstonians on the “back pitch” at Richmond Road.The merged Kingstonian club started in the Athenian League, winning it in 1923/24 and 1925/26, before joining the Isthmian League in 1929.
In the 1930s, Kingstonian achieved its greatest accolade by winning the FA Amateur Cup in 1933, defeating Stockton in the final. The club won the Isthmian League again in 1933/34 and 1936/37. After a period of decline, Kingstonian bounced back in 1985 and were promoted to the Nationwide Conference in 1998. The club moved to their new Kingsmeadow Stadium in 1989 and enjoyed success in the late 1990s, winning the FA Trophy in 1999 and 2000. However, relegation followed in 2001, and the club has since had ups and downs, with several managers and ownership changes.
