Huntingdon United FC

Huntingdon United FC Huntingdon United Football Club is a football club based in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, England. They are currently members of the Cambridgeshire League.

Our History:
The original Huntingdon United were established in 1948 as a merger of Huntingdon Town and Huntingdon Wanderers. Town had been formed in the 1800s and won the Huntingdonshire Senior Cup eleven times before World War I. For most of the period between 1922 and the merger, they had played in the Peterborough & District League.[1] The newly merged club joined the Central Amateur League i

n 1949,[2] but the league folded at the end of the season. The club then joined Division Two of the United Counties League instead. In 1960 they dropped into Division One of the Peterborough & District League in 1960. They won the division in 1962–63 and were promoted to the Premier Division, where they won the title in 1974–75 and 1975–76. In 1988 Huntingdon joined the newly formed Division One of the Eastern Counties League and finished ninth in their first season. After finishing fourteenth in 1989–90 and sixteenth in 1990–91, the club finished second from bottom in 1991–92. With no secretary and only two club officials left, the club resigned from the league at the end of the season.[1] The first team replaced their reserves in the Huntingdonshire League. They joined the newly established West Anglian League in 1994, and were runners-up in its first season. The following year they won the league and cup double, and were promoted to Division One of the United Counties League.[1] They finished fifth in their first season, by now playing at the Sapley Road playing fields after leaving their Tower Field ground. However, after a planned move to a new ground in Kings Ripton Road fell through (the ground eventually became home to Huntingdon Town), the manager and most of the players left.[1] The following season they finished bottom of Division One, conceding 273 goals in 34 matches.[3]

Huntingdon dropped into the East Midlands Alliance, before switching to Senior Division A of the Cambridgeshire League. In 2004 they dropped down again, taking the place of their reserves in Division 2B. In 2005 they merged with RGE Huntingdon to form Huntingdon United RGE. The new club was promoted to Division 1B in 2005–06. They won the division the following season and were promoted to the Senior Division B. Although the first team withdrew from the league during the 2007–08 season, the reserves continued, effectively becoming the first team. They were promoted to Division 2B as champions of Division 3B in 2008–09, and were promoted again to Division 1B the following season after finishing second.[1] The club dropped the RGE from their name during the 2013–14 season. In 2016–17 Huntingdon won the Creake Charity Shield, beating Chatteris Town reserves 5–0 in the final,[4] and were champions of Division 1B, remaining unbeaten during the league season,[5] earning promotion to Senior Division B. The following season saw them win the Percy Oldham Memorial Cup and the Senior Division B title, securing a second successive promotion.

The 1st team made it 2 wins from 2 with a fantastic performance on the road in Cambridge this afternoon. After an even start we began to take control 20 mins in as a great spell of pressure led to Tommy Dear slotting home to give us a deserved lead, a sharp left foot strike from George Smith soon after put us 2-0 up at the break. We started the second half in the same mood with George Claxton slotting home just 20 seconds into the half after a fantastic team move. Smith sealed the win on 65 mins from the penalty spot before Fayed grabbed his first goal for the club with a neat header late on after another impressive display.

At Jubilee Park the reserves were on the wrong end of a 3-2 defeat despite long spells of dominance. Ted Newton and Hadley Rodda with the goals in what is always a close encounter with Needingworth. This young group will dust themselves down and go again 💚❤️

A great start to life in Senior A for us yesterday with a comprehensive 6-0 win against Great Shelford reserves. The boys took the lead within 2 minutes through Tommy Dear who then completed a first half hatrick either side of a George Claxton strike to give us a 4-0 half time lead. The second half continued with the same momentum in biblical conditions with George Claxton grabbing his second before the evergreen Carl Foreman rounded things off late on. With 5 first team regulars missing it was a great start to the season with a great debut from new signing Fayed Rahman and some of last years reserves stepping up to help us once again.

Thank you to yesterdays match sponsor Aircon Tom (Tommy Thfc Barringer) and the great crowd of 80 for coming out in such awful weather. Next week sees us on the road away to Orwell who play in Cambridge followed by a Friday night game under the lights v Somersham on September 11th 💚❤️

Our first team kick off their season and begin life in Senior A with a tough start at home on the main pitch at Jubilee Park tomorrow against Great Shelford Reserves in a 3pm kick off. After a strong pre season we have added a couple of new faces to our talented young squad as we look to be competitive once again after promotion last season.

Any support as always would be hugely appreciated 💚❤️

The thoughts of everyone at the club go out to our young reserve winger Max Hawkins who suffered a horrible leg injury just after half time in last nights friendly v Brampton. Big thank you to all the supporters, players, coaching staff and staff at Hinchingbrooke one leisure who stayed on site to ensure he was as comfortable as possible before the paramedics from Hinchingbrooke and Magpas arrived.

As a club we will look to support Max in any way we can during his rehabilitation 🙏🏻💚❤️
