Monmouth Town Football Club is a Welsh football club based in the historic town of Monmouth. The club plays in the Ardal Leagues South East, tier 3 of the Welsh football pyramid. Association football was first played in Monmouth as early as February 1870. Regular association matches was played between Monmouth Grammar School and Troy FC (Mitchel Troy). By 1874, both teams had fully converted to rugby, and very rarely played association football over the next few years. At the beginning of the 1888/1889 season. Monmouth Association Football Club were formed. Their first match was a 6–3 win at home to Micheltroy. Monmouth lost their second match 5–0 away to Abergavenny AFC. During their third match, away to Micheltroy, one of Monmouth's players, T. T. Williams, a Monmouth Grammar School pupil, broke his leg during the match. The match was immediately abandoned. Monmouth were winning 2–1. Their fourth match was against a team called "Minstrels", where the Minstrels club played in costume. Monmouth won 5–2. Another match was announced at home to Abergavenny AFC, but it seems this match was not played. No other matches was reported during their first season. It seems Monmouth AFC only played 1 season, as there is no evidence to suggest that the club carried on playing after this season. There is evidence to suggest that an 'association club' was playing in all white at Dixton Road in the town in the year 1906. The Monmouth Beacon of 14 December recalls this and adds a comment about a period when football had been extinct in Monmouth. Indeed, research shows that Monmouth were joint champions of the Monmouth and District League in 1925–26 with Clearwell FC. More information...
