MISSION STATEMENT
“Encouraging the development for all within our local community”

The Club began life in 1921 as Stanton FC, the team of Stanton Ironworks, hence their nickname The Ironmen and in recent years Ironladies. Football was a favourite activity at the works with inter departmental games in addition to a colts and representative team.

From these early days as a works team the club has, in recent years, evolved into a community based organisation with no link to the Stanton works.
