Hithercroft Football Club

Our home ground is The Pedestal which is on the A4010 (Bradenham Road) at the junction with the A40 near West Wycombe (see Map accessible from the 'Where We Play' box). We were established in 1969 and over the following years built up to cater for age groups from the Under 11s through to the Under 18s Youth team. Over recent years the lower age groups have had to close, mainly through lack of parents who were prepared to manage these teams. At the start of the 2003/4 Season we consisted of the Under 16s (playing in Division 1 of the Wycombe and South Bucks Minor Football League) and the Hithercroft Youth team (playing in the South Bucks Youth League). Unfortunately the Youth team was disbanded in December 2003. For 2004/5 Season we just had a Youth Team which played in white shirts, black shorts and black socks with a second strip of yellow shirts, blue shorts and blue socks and we finished 3rd in our Division at the end of the season. At the start of the 2005/6 Season we joined the High Wycombe Sunday Football Combination League and, like all the other 'new' teams, were placed in Division 5. We finished as champions of the division and for the 2006/7 Season were promoted into Division 3, changing our name to 'Afc Hithercroft' and our main kit to all-red. We ended the season in second place and so have been promoted into Division 2 for the 2007/8 Season. We finished in 4th place at the end of the 2007/8 Season and so will remain in Division 2 for next season but hope to gain promotion to Division 1 for the following season.
