22 Aug 2006

Awbridge FC were founded around 1904 (frequently playing as Awbridge Albion) and spent their early days playing friendly matches before playing in local village leagues. In 1925 the club joined the Salisbury League and after great success they joined the Southampton League where they proceeded to climb up through the Junior ranks.

After reaching the Senior section in 1953 Awbridge enjoyed countless successes in what was their 'golden age' and the Sixties saw the club continue to thrive as they twice won the Southampton Premier League, Southampton Senior Cup and Hampshire Intermediate Cup.

Eventually, these successess let to the club gaining Hampshire League status in 1968 where they remained ever since, alternating between the divisions, experiencing good and bad times along the way.

Sadly in 2002 the club was forced to vacate their tradiotional Village Hall Field home after 75 years. In order to continue they joined forces with friendly local rivals Michelmersh & Timsbury of the Southampton League who were also experiencing problems.

Awbridge FC was forced to disband with its teams becoming absorbed into the M&T Sports Club where they played under the banner of M&T Awbridge until 2006 when they became simply known as Michelmersh & Timsbury.

Although after over a hundred years the Awbridge name is no more the club lives on under a new identity.
