[edit] History
Wendron Cricket Club was formed in 1949 as Porkellis Cricket Club, however the football side of the club did not come in to being until 1986 as Wendron CC United Football Club. They played infrequent football at first, but soon established themselves as a decent league side within the Falmouth & Helston League. The football side of the club is now one of the most prominent in West Cornwall, and with new facilities recently opened, they gained promotion to the new South West Peninsula League Division One West, dropping the "Cricket Club" element of their name in 2007.
