Burton Park Wanderers F.C.

Burton Park Wanderers Football Club is a football club based in Burton Latimer, Northamptonshire, England. They are currently members of the Spartan South Midlands League Division One and play at Latimer Park.[1]

The club was formed in 1961 as Kettering Park Wanderers. They joined Division Two of the United Counties League in 1968, which became Division One in 1972.[2] The club adopted their current name in 1973.[2] After finishing second-from-bottom of Division One in 1977–78, they were relegated to Division Two. However, the division was disbanded two years later and they were returned to Division One.[3] In 1988–89 they were Division One runners-up, earning promotion to the Premier Division. Two seasons later they finished bottom of the Premier Division and were relegated back to Division One.[3]

Burton Park Wanderer remained in Division One for the next thirty seasons, only finishing in the top half on four occasions and finishing bottom of the division in 1988–99, for five consecutive seasons between 2001–02 and 2005–06, and again in 2012–13, 2015–16 and 2016–17. At the end of the 2020–21 season they were transferred to Division One of the Spartan South Midlands League.
