Ivybridge Town Football Club is a football club based in Ivybridge, Devon, England. Established in 1925, the club was a founder member of the Devon County League in 1992.

For the first decade of their membership of the County League, they were regular strugglers, finishing in the bottom half of the table for seven successive seasons. Since the turn of the millennium, they had become one of the stronger sides in the league, culminating in taking the title for the first time in the 2005-06 season.

They play at Erme Valley, a multi-sport venue just across the main A38 road to the south of the town averaging between 50-100 attendance for each game.[1] It is one of the more basic venues in the League, and as such would inhibit any ambitions to progress further up the National League System. This is also the reason they have yet to make their debut in national FA competitions
