Club Details

Wensum Albion Football club started life in the Norwich Business Houses League in the 1991/92 season under the guise of FC Warwick. The division 4 title was secured convincingly in our first season and the team also advanced to the Norfolk Primary Cup semi-final stage. After this initial success, a Reserve side was formed for the start of the following campaign.

The Club changed its name to Thorpe Kings Head in 1992. Since then, the Club has also been known as Pickwick, Thorpe Kings Head (again) and Trowse Newton.

The First Team gained two further promotions in successive seasons as Division 3 runners-up in 1992/93 and Division 2 runners-up in 1993/94. The First Team remained in Division 1 until 2004/05, usually recording a mid-table position. Our highest position of 5th came in the 1996/97 season.

The reserve team spent five seasons in Division 4 before securing promotion to Division 3. 1998/99 was the reserves most successful season as the team achieved promotion to Division 2 after finishing third in Division 3. In the same season, the reserves won the FJ Potter Cup in a thrilling victory in the final on penalties against Rangers Exiles.

The Club has been known as Wensum Albion since June 2000.

A new committee formed in the summer of 2005 decided to withdraw the reserve team from the league after a dismal season in 2004/05. In the same season, the first team were relegated from Division 1. As a result, Wensum Albion started the 2005/06 season in Division 3. An excellent third place finish secured promotion.
