About us

AFC Wimbledon is a professional football club based in Wimbledon, London with an astonishing history, having been reformed in 2002 to continue 135 years of Wimbledon sporting representation. In 2020 the club returned home to Plough Lane, Wimbledon - to the brand new Cherry Red Records Stadium - a purpose-built long-awaited modern stadium with a 9,000 capacity and excellent corporate and event facilities, funded by the dedicated contributions of its fans. The original Wimbledon FC played just yards away for 70 years and achieved worldwide fame by going from non-league to the Premiership and beating Liverpool in the 1988 FA Cup Final. Owned by its fans through membership of The Dons Trust, AFC Wimbledon exemplifies community spirit and fan engagement - with award-winning community schemes and charitable endeavours alongside its sporting achievements. The club’s men's team play in League Two, its women’s team have won promotion to the third tier for the first time and its Academy produces new generations of professional players while regularly beating the youth teams of Premier League and Championship sides. It has the longest-standing shirt sponsorship deal in English football history (Sports Interactive) and a strong track record in partnering with brands seeking to harness the history, authenticity and global reach of this fan-powered football fairy-tale.
