About

At the Heart of Every Town Is Its Football Club

Redhill Football Club has been part of the fabric of the town since 1894.

For over 130 years, players, supporters, volunteers and partners have kept the club alive through highs, lows and everything in between.

Today, Redhill FC is a community-owned, not-for-profit club, reinvesting back into football at every level — from grassroots to first team, from schools to senior football.

We are proud of where we’ve come from.
And excited about where we’re going.

A Club Built on Opportunity

Redhill FC provides opportunities for:

  • Boys and girls discovering football for the first time

  • Young players progressing through structured development pathways

  • Students combining education with academy football

  • Adults enjoying competitive and recreational football

  • Volunteers, coaches and supporters to play an active role in the club

Football for everyone. Pathways for all.

Our History

Founded in 1894. Still moving forward.

Redhill Football Club was formed in 1894 and quickly became a cornerstone of local sporting life. Two years later, the club moved into Memorial Park, where it remained for 88 years at the heart of the town.

Success came early. After joining the Athenian League in 1923, Redhill finished runners-up and champions in their first two seasons. The 1925/26 season remains one of the club’s finest — reaching two cup finals and the FA Amateur Cup semi-final at Highbury in front of 17,000 spectators.

The club reached the FA Cup First Round Proper in 1957/58, travelling to Norwich City after defeating Tooting & Mitcham. Though defeated, Redhill earned widespread praise for their performance.

Following the final Athenian League title in 1984, the club moved to Kiln Brow, its home today. Despite challenges around facilities and league structures, Redhill FC survived difficult periods thanks to tireless volunteers and supporters.

Recent decades have seen renewed momentum — promotions, cup finals, academy growth and a strengthened community focus — culminating in the club celebrating its 130th anniversary and winning the Combined Counties Premier League Cup in 2020/21.

Redhill FC’s story is one of resilience, pride and people.

Redhill Youth FC

With over 50 youth teams across all age groups from U7 to U18, including over 15 Girls teams, we’re growing into one of the largest youth football clubs in the area.

Offering a clear pathway from Little Lobsters (age 2-5 years), through to youth and competitive leagues, and our new post-16 Academy collaboration with East Surrey College, we have built a strong foundation that sets up an exciting future for everyone involved in the club.

We’re continually scaling up our management, coaching, refereeing resources and facilities to provide opportunities for as many of the local youth as possible.

It’s exciting seeing so much local interest in joining the Club and seeing kids grow and develop socially as well as playing. There’s clear opportunities for talet to devlop and for recreational football to be enjoyed to the full.
