Yeovil Town F.C.

Yeovil Town F.C. is an English football team based in Yeovil. The club currently plays in Division Three.

Along with Plymouth Argyle, they are in a minority of English clubs to play in a largely green strip. Even so, for the 2003/2004 season they play mostly in white with green stripes.

They have spent almost all of its history outside of the Football League. The club, founded in 1890 as Yeovil Football Club shared a ground for many years with the town's rugby club. In 1895 they became Yeovil Casuals and moved to play their home games atthe Pen Mill Athletic Ground. The club became Yeovil Town in 1907. However, the club was still to alter its name. In 1915 an amalgamation of Yeovil Town and Petters United led to a new club called Yeovil and Petters United.

Yeovil Town earned promotion to the Football League in 2003 by winning the Nationwide Conference.

Their nickname is 'The Glovers', which comes from the town's history of glovemaking, an industry that was at its peak in Yeovil when the football team was formed.
