As a result of many meetings between the clubs, both Buckingham United FC & Buckingham Athletic FC formally agreed to pass the motion to combine both clubs, creating Buckingham Football Club with immediate effect.
Initial exploratory meetings between both clubs showed a real synergy, shared aspirations, and a great working relationship. There has been no historic rivalry between the two clubs, and instead one of unique connections, which has allowed this door of opportunity to be opened.
This is not an end to Buckingham Athletic or Buckingham United, this is very much a continuation in the story of these clubs and football within the town. The history of which won’t be forgotten.
The ultimate aim of combining the clubs is to provide the town with a sustainable non-league football club by sharing resources, passionate volunteers, and great sporting facilities. A club with the aim of pushing up the pyramid while also providing structured football for the community, maintaining the fun and enjoyment of the game that everyone loves.
This is a really exciting time for football in the town, and the club as a whole, providing a great opportunity to carry this positive momentum forward and build something. Further details and opportunities will be announced over the next few days.
