Yeovil Town F.C. is an English football team based in Yeovil, Somerset. Founded as Yeovil FC in 1890 they shared their ground with the local rugby club for many years. Five years later they were renamed Yeovil Casuals and started playing home games at the Pen Mill Athletic Ground. In 1907 the name Yeovil Town was adopted, which on amalgamation with Petters United became Yeovil and Petters United. After winning the Western League in 1922, the club joined the Southern League in 1923 and became a limited company. When professional competition resumed after the Second World War the club adopted the name Yeovil Town.  Between 1955 and 1973 they were champions of the Southern Football League three times. During this period, Yeovil Town applied for election to the Football League on a number of occasions, coming within a few votes of being elected in 1976. They finally won promotion to the Football League as Conference champions in 2003, but by that time had long been established as the most successful non-league team in the FA Cup – having defeated major Football League teams, most famously Sunderland in the 4th Round in 1949.  They then won the League Two title in 2004–05, before reaching the Championship with victory in the 2013 League One play-off final. However they suffered consecutive relegations, and were relegated once more following the 2018–19 season, ending their 16-season spell in the Football League. Yeovil play their home games at Huish Park, built in 1990 on the site of the Old Army Camp at Houndstone and named after their former home at Huish, once  famous for an 8-foot sideline to sideline slope. The new ground has a capacity of just under 10,000 but allowance has been made for future expansion to a stadium of up to 20,000.
