Budleigh Salterton A.F.C.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Budleigh Salterton F.C. is a football club based in Budleigh Salterton, Devon, England.

They were established in 1908, playing in the East Devon League until joining the Devon & Exeter League in 1919. They stayed in this company until being promoted to the Devon County League in 1995. They won the Devon County League at the first attempt, by the narrowest of margins (on goals scored, after finishing level on both points and goal difference with Stoke Gabriel. They also took the title (again from Stoke Gabriel) in 1999-00.

Their current ground is in Greenway Lane, which they moved to in 1952. They have gradually built up a basic venue to include a Club House, two small stands (one seated and one standing), and, in 2001 floodlights. The installation of lights has allowed them to compete in the FA Vase - their best performance so far being progression to the first round proper in 2003-04. As of the 2007-08 season, they are now members of the South West Peninsula League Division One East.
