Kiveton Park Football Club is a football club based in Kiveton Park, South Yorkshire, England.

History

The club was originally formed in 1892, although a Kiveton side has recently been found to have played in Sheffield football as early as 1880, as well as playing in the Sheffield and Hallamshire Senior Cup in 1884. They were founder members of the Sheffield League. They remained in this league until 1963, when they joined Yorkshire League Division Two, gaining promotion to Division One in 1965-66, a season which also saw them lift the Sheffield Senior Cup for the only time. The club has been known in the past as Kiveton Park Colliery and Kiveton Park United.

When the Yorkshire League merged with the Midland League to form the Northern Counties East League, Kiveton Park were among the founder members of the new league, and stayed there until dropping down to the Central Midlands League in 1991. After a five-year spell in that league, they left, rejoining in 1999 and retain membership of the Central Midlands League to this day, currently in the Premier Division.

In the 1980-81 season, they reached the 4th round of the FA Vase and in the 2005-06 season, the club retained the Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Association Cup.

They have also played in the FA Cup on six occasions, most recently in 1969-70.

Its home ground, Hard Lane, as held three Sheffield and Hallamshire Senior Cup finals, and holds upto 2,000 spectators, with seating space for 200 in the 70 year old main stand.
