Rainworth Miners Welfare Football Club
Rainworth Miners Welfare Football Club is a football club based in Rainworth, Nottinghamshire, England. The club was formed in 1922 and currently plays in the United Counties Football League Division One.
History
The club spent the majority of its existence in the Notts Alliance, winning the league 10 times, including a record six in succession between 1977 and 1983. They also recorded league cup and county cup success in that spell, and had some lengthy runs in the FA Vase, including reaching the final in 1981–82, when they lost the final 3–0 to Forest Green Rovers at Wembley Stadium.
After a period of less success, the club won two more Alliance titles in the mid-1990s, and then began to build for a rise up the football pyramid. In 2005, they were promoted to the Northern Counties East League Premier Division, and in 2009, they were promoted to the Northern Premier League Division One South.
The club remained in the Northern Premier League for six seasons, before being relegated back to the Northern Counties East League Premier Division in 2015. They have since been playing in the NCEL Premier Division, and currently sit in 10th place in the table.
