Camberley Town Football Club is a semi-professional football club from the town of Camberley in Surrey. Founded in 1895 as St. Michael's, Camberley FC, the club was renamed Camberley & Yorktown FC in 1901. A further change of name occurred after the Second World War, when the club was simply called Camberley FC. In 1967, Camberley merged with the town's other senior club, Camberley Wanderers, to become Camberley Town FC.
The club currently runs two senior sides. The first team play in the Combined Counties League Premier Division, while the reserves play in the Suburban League North Division.
Club honours include various league titles, such as the Surrey Senior League three years running in the early 1930s, and a few local cups, including the Surrey Senior Cup in 1979 and the Aldershot Senior Cup, which they have won three times. In national competitions, the club's best ever performance in the FA Cup came in 1997–98 when they won through to the First Round Proper, before losing 5–0 at Brentford. Their best FA Vase performance came in 1985–86, when they reached the quarter-finals, losing 3–1 at eventual winners Halesowen Town.
Camberley Town also make ties with the local community by having a thriving youth set-up which has achieved F.A. charter standard. This is for boys and girls from the under 6 to under 18 age groups and is linked right through to the first team. A number of senior players have been picked from the youth sides over the years including Torquay United and former Kingstonian player Tim Sills and Paul Harkness who is currently registered with both Camberley Town and Farnborough F.C.
