Who We Are: The town of Crewe had not been represented in the Mid-Cheshire League since Rolls Royce in 1984 but in 1998 this changed with the formation of Crewe F.C. The original idea came from Ian O'Reilly, Pat Slack, Trevor Moss and Steve Palin. Sons and relations at the local Crewe Youth Centre, having reached the age of sixteen, had nowhere to go and it was decided to set up a team and apply to the Mid-Cheshire League. This was achieved and the club set up a pitch in the centre of the running track at the council owned Cumberland Sports Arena.

Crewe had a solid if unspectacular first season with a very young side, finishing 12th in the league whilst in the Crewe Cup they lost out to a last minute goal at Nantwich Town. The following season Crewe won promotion to the Mid-Cheshire 1st division after finishing runners up to Trafford Reserves. In the Divisional Cup they went one better defeating
Trafford Reserves at Witton Albion F.C. after a penalty shoot out. Season 2004/2005 saw Crewe FC First Team suffer their first relegation but also picking up two pieces of silver ware as the young side defeated Glossop North End in the Final of the Presidents Cup at Trafford and retain the Crewe Cup for the third consecutive year with
victory over Alsager Town.

The club’s match day programme once again last season was surveyed as the best Programme in the Cheshire League.
Last season saw Crewe FC miss out on promotion by one point and finish runners up to FA Vase winners Nantwich Town, losing 1-0 in the Crewe Cup.

The club during the past seasons has developed close links with Manchester Metropolitan University who assist in providing fully qualified coaches to the Crewe FC teams as well as running FA coaching courses enabling the Crewe FC personal to obtain FA qualifications.

Last season saw Crewe retain the Crewe Cup defeating Lostock Graham in the final. On their way to the final Crewe defeated Alsager Town Reserves and Nantwich Town.

In the closed season the club has been successful in obtaining F.A. Chartered Standard.
