Tamworth Football Club

Tamworth Football Club has a proud recent history, including winning the FA Vase in 1989, finishing as runners up the FA Trophy in 2003, and taking on a whole host of top names in the FA Cup such as Everton, Norwich City, and Bristol City.

Over four score years ago, in the summer of 1933, a football team in Tamworth was just a dream for the lovers of the beautiful game who worked together to set up a new club in the town.

The demise of Tamworth Castle FC left the town with no senior level football club, but a campaign involving a town businessman and the local newspaper set the wheels in motion to form another club, and so Tamworth FC was born. The original ground on which the team played was next to the now demolished Jolly Sailor pub, and from 1934 onwards The Lamb became the club’s new home, where they remain to this day.
