Downham Town

The club was established in 1881, and were originally nicknamed the Saints. They initially played in junior leagues in the King's Lynn area, before joining the Peterborough & District League in 1949, when they gained senior status after being elected to the league's Premier Division. In 1961–62 they won the Peterborough Senior Cup, which they retained the following year, also winning the Peterborough & District League title. In 1963–64 they won the Norfolk Senior Cup, winning it again two years later. Further victories in the Peterborough Senior Cup came in 1966–67, 1971–72 and 1986–87, whilst the league title was won in 1973–74, 1978–79. Following back-to-back titles in 1986–87 and 1987–88, the club became founding members of the new Division One of the Eastern Counties League in 1988. They remained in the division until 2018, when the league reorganisation saw them placed in Division One North. In 2021–22 the club finished third in Division One North, qualifying for the promotion play-offs. Although they beat Norwich CBS 1–0 in the semi-finals, they lost 3–1 to Harleston Town in the final. The following season saw them finish as runners-up in the division, this time winning the promotion play-offs by beating Whittlesey Athletic 4–1 in the semi-finals and Harwich & Parkeston 4–0 in the final to earn promotion to the Premier Division.

Downham won the Norfolk Senior Cup for a third time in 2023–24, beating Gorleston 4–2 in the final. In 2024–25 they finished third in the Premier Division. In the subsequent play-offs they defeated Ely City 3–0 in the semi-finals and then beat Walsham-le-Willows 2–1 in the final to earn promotion to the North Division of the Isthmian League. In 2025–26 the club finished third-from-bottom of the North Division and were relegated back to the Premier Division of the Eastern Counties League.
