The formation of Kennington Football Club dates back to before 1890. The Kent County Football Association records show our existence in 1888, however The Football Association put our birth in 1885.
What is not in dispute was that Kennington Football Club was the oldest junior club in Kent. Both the associations marked the fact and presented the club with illuminated addresses to mark the achievement in 1988.
The club took the decision to step up the football pyramid into the prestigious Kent County League in the 1980’s. This was an attempt to mix with stronger opposition, better playing conditions, and in turn, a higher standard of officialdom both on and off the pitch.
Our step up into the Southern Counties East Football League is the result of success in winning the Kent County Premier League in 2017/18.
The club entered an exciting new phase of its history for the 2018/19 campaign, ground sharing at Ashford United’s Homelands Stadium, with Dan Scorer’s side finishing a highly creditable third in their inaugural season at Step 6.
The club’s rise continued at the end of 2020/21, achieving promotion to the SCEFL Premier Division by virtue of the FA’s NLS restructuring at Steps 4-6 – a move which saw Ton grace Step 5 for the first time in its history.
The club finished fifth in its debut season in the SCEFL Premier Division, while reaching the first qualifying round of the FA Cup, prior to defeat at home to Isthmian Premier Division side, Carshalton Athletic.
It was 12th place for the Ton in 22/23 and 17th in 2023/24 – we now eagerly awaiting the excitement ahead of our next SCEFL campaign.
