BASILDON TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB HAS BEEN A PILLAR OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY EVER SINCE ITS CREATION
the general community by promoting healthy and social activity. Our Social Media side is growing each year with over 3,000 followers on twitter and nearly 1,000 followers on Facebook. We are looking to increase our Social Media output over the next season to get more interaction with the football community as well as the local community.
The club continues to grow and now has three adult teams playing across steps 6-8 of the football pyramid and 11 youth sides, including a girls U10’s team. We hope to add to this over the coming years.
We are primarily based at the Basildon Sport and Leisure Club on Gardiners Way with our adult Reserve and A Team and some youth teams playing there, the remainder of which, play at The Basildon Post Office Club. Our adult first team are based at Basildon United’s, The Hive, as part of a ground share.
We pride ourselves on being a community club with strong links to local businesses, organisations, schools, and social media. We firmly believe in the benefits football offers our players, supporters, and
Basildon Town FC is a non-profit making organisation with all adult’s players and parents of Youth teams paying match fees toward the substantial costs of running the club. This includes FA affiliation fees, pitch fees, Referee/officials fees, match and training balls, training equipment, first aid equipment, and training ground fees. Additional funding and sponsorship ensure we can continue to develop all aspects of the club.
WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU FOR OUR NEXT HOME MATCH
HISTORY
FOUNDED IN 1946, BASILDON TOWN
FC IS THE OLDEST FOOTBALL CLUB IN THE TOWN.
In recent years the first team have risen from Division two in the Essex Olympian League to the Premier Division, along the way, there has been a League and Cup double and several top two finishes. In season 2021-22, we secured promotion to the Eastern Counties Thurlow Nunn Division 1 South narrowly missing out on promotion in the 2022-23 season to the Essex Senior League. Last season saw a change in personnel but a great push toward the end saw us finish in the top half of the table. We now have an excellent management team in place and a strong squad whom we hope will see us push on this season.
IN SEASON 2021-22, WE SECURED PROMOTION TO THE EASTERN COUNTIES THURLOW NUNN DIVISION 1 SOUTH
Our reserve side were crowned champions of the Essex Olympian League Division 3 in 2022-23, gained promotion from Division 2 in 2023/24 and are currently playing in Division 1.
Basildon Town A Team was promoted from the Southend Borough League in 2021-22 into Division four of the Essex Olympian League, a second-place finish saw them promoted to the Division 3 where they are currently plying their trade.
Our Youth teams all had an excellent 2023/24 season and will be looking to push on this season.
