[edit] History
The club was originally formed as Farnborough Covenanters in 1967, and initially played in the Woking and District League.[1] In the 1980s the club was renamed Covies to distinguish itself from the church youth group. They then joined the Surrey Intermediate League (Western), where they played until joining Division Three of the Hampshire League in 1991. In 1998 the club adopted its current name,[2] and the following season were promoted to Division Two as part of league re-organisation.[3] In 2000–01 they won the division and were promoted to Division One.
In 2003–04 they joined the newly-established Division Three of the Wessex League, and were promoted to Division Two after finishing third in their first season. In 2010 they switched to Division One of the Combined Counties League.
[edit] Stadium
Initially the club played at Knellwood (also known as the King George V playing fields). Whilst members of the Surrey Intermediate League, the club played at Cove Green and then at Queens Road in North Camp (the former home of Farnborough Town) for around 10 years. In 1998 they moved to Farnborough Gate on Ringwood Road, beforemoving to the Cody Sports & Social Club in February 2005.
