Dover F.C.

Dover F.C.
The Dover team of 1903

Dover F.C. was a football club based in Dover, Kent, England. The club joined the Kent League in 1894, but folded in 1901.[1] Dover F.C. was revived a year later, this time as a purely amateur club, and rejoined the Kent League, but folded again in 1909.[1] The club reformed once again, this time as Dover United F.C. and playing in local leagues, in 1920 but disbanded for the third time in 1933. A further incarnation of the club, once again under the name Dover F.C., began play a year later, only to fold yet again in 1947.

A new semi-professional Dover F.C. was immediately formed and rejoined the Kent League, going on to win the league championship twice in the 1950s before progressing to the Southern League. Dover won the championship of Division One in 1967 and gained promotion to the Premier Division, where the club spent eleven seasons before being relegated. In 1983 the club folded due to its massive debts.[2] A new club, Dover Athletic, took over its place in the league and remains active to this day.[3]
