Witheridge Football Club is a football club based in Witheridge, Devon, England. After finishing second in the Devon and Exeter League in 2005–06, they joined the Devon County League for the 2006–07 season, and then joined the new South West Peninsula League for 2007–08.

Overview

Formed in 1920, Witheridge started with a Married team and Singles team. Up until the Second World War, Witheridge played their football in the North Devon League. After the war, Witheridge did not rejoin the North Devon League but joined the Tiverton and District league playing clubs like Bampton and Elmore.

In 1971, Witheridge moved from the Tiverton League to the Devon and Exeter League, starting out in Intermediate Four. In 1990, the side won the Express and Echo Shield and they soon saw success in the Devon and Exeter League. 1992 saw Witheridge promoted to Intermediate One then onto Senior Three, Two and One. Then, in 1996, Witheridge won promotion to the Devon and Exeter Premier League.

In 1997, current manager Andre Pike was appointed as first team manager and the 1999–2000 season saw Witheridge finish as runners-up in the Devon and Exeter Premier League and also win three cups – the Okehampton Cup, Devon Premier Cup and the East Devon Senior Cup – all within two weeks of each other.

During their spell in the Devon and Exeter Premier League, Witheridge finished as runners-up five times in their last seven seasons in the league. 2006 saw the team promoted to the Devon County League and in their only season managed to finish in 11th place.
