Erith Town Football Club is a football club based in Thamesmead in South East London, England. They are currently members of the Southern Counties East League Premier Division and play at Bayliss Avenue.
History
The club was established in 1959 as a Sunday league club under the name Woolwich Town. They initially played in the London Metropolitan Sunday League and were Senior Section champions in 1965–66, 1970–71 and 1974–75. In 1989 the club was renamed Woolwich Heathway, but reverted to their original name within a year. In 1991 they began playing Saturday football, joining Division Two of the Spartan League. Despite only finishing ninth in their first season in Division Two, the club were promoted to Division One due to league restructuring. In 1994–95 they finished second in Division One, earning promotion to the Premier Division.
In 1996 Woolwich transferred to the Kent League, and at the end of the 1996–97 season were renamed Erith Town due to their move to the Erith Stadium. They won the Kent League's Premier Division Cup in 2007–08, beating Hythe Town 1–0 in the final. The club reached the final again the following season, losing 3–1 on penalties to Croydon after a 1–1 draw. A proposed merger with Dartford Town in the summer of 2010 was abandoned, and the club went on to win the Kent Senior Trophy in 2010–11 with a 3–1 win over Tunbridge Wells in the final. In 2013 the league was renamed the Southern Counties East League. In 2023–24 they won the League Challenge Cup, beating Corinthian 5–3 on penalties after a 1–1 draw.
Erith Town has a rich history and a strong fan base, with a reputation for playing attractive and attacking football. The team's colors are red and white, and they play their home matches at the Erith Stadium, which has a capacity of around 2,000 spectators.
Over the years, Erith Town has produced talented players who have gone on to play at higher levels of the game. The club has also enjoyed success in various cup competitions and league campaigns, consistently challenging for promotion and silverware.
With a dedicated coaching staff and a squad of talented players, Erith Town continues to strive for success and aims to establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the non-league football scene.
