Runnymede F.C

Runnymede F.C. was an English association football club, founded in 1876.

History
The club's first recorded match was in November 1876 against St Mark's of Windsor.

The club entered the FA Cup once, in 1878-79. In the first round, the club played Panthers of Sturminster Newton, at home. The match ended in a draw, but Runnymede withdrew rather than take part in a replay.

Despite having a full fixture list in 1876-77 and 1877–78, the club seems to have disbanded by 1879–80. The club relied on players from St Mark's and the University of Cambridge so on their graduation the club lost access to those players.

Colours
The club played in light blue and brown quarters, which, in the context of the times, usually referred to halves.

Ground
The club played at the Railway Inn.
