AFC Poppies are the supporters team of Kettering Town FC. The team was founded in July 2008 after Kettering Town supporters showed a interest in setting up a team to play matches against supporters from other sides.
Darren Young was named as manager and the team held it's first training session on the 17th July 2008 and a lot of interest was shown.
Since then the team have acquired three sponsors in Ar Tarn Private Hire, Funky Town Grooves and Hammy Young. These sponsors have allowed the team to purchase a full strip as well as training equipment and balls.
On the 31st August 2008 AFC Poppies played their first game when they defeated the supporters team from Nuneaton Borough by eight goals to nil.
