Brimsdown Football Club is a football club based in Brimsdown, London, England. They are currently members of the Eastern Counties League Division One South and play at Wodson Park in Ware.
History
The club was established in 2013 when Lee Okugbeni, manager of the Kentish Town under-18 team, wanted the squad to progress to adult football; they were subsequently admitted to Division Two of the Spartan South Midlands League for the 2013–14 season.[2][3] The club finished second-from-bottom of the division in their first season, but the 2014–15 season saw them finish fourth.[3] However, Hale Leys United and Kent Athletic, who had finished first and second respectively, were unable to take promotion due to inadequate grounds, allowing Brimsdown to take promotion to Division One.[2] The 2015–16 season saw the club enter the FA Vase for the first time.[3]
