Mousehole FC - A History
Mousehole joined the Cornwall Combina on in 1960–61 and were
promoted to the South West Peninsula League Division One West on its
forma on in 2007, a er finishing as Combina on runners-up the previous
season. They won Division One West in 2015–16. At the end of 2018–19 the
league was restructured, and Mousehole successfully applied for
promo on to the Premier Division West, at Step 6 of the Na onal League
System.
Since 2017, the club have had a sponsorship arrangement with the
Endorsed Group, a recruitment and so ware company run by a local
businessman. Together with the club they have set up the Endorsed
Academy, aiming to improve coaching standards and provide opportuni es
for young footballers in Cornwall. Mousehole hosted a pre-season
tournament in July 2018, the Endorsed Cup, featuring youth teams from
Newcastle United, Huddersfield Town and Bolton Wanderers.
In 2018 a approach was made by Mousehole concerning a possible merger
between themselves and neighbours Penzance A.F.C., amid concerns that
Trungle Parc may not prove viable as Mousehole progress through the
leagues. A further approach was made by Penzance in 2019, but in May,
Mousehole released a statement confirming they had withdrawn from the
discussions. In 2021 they were promoted to the Premier Division of the
Western League based on their results in the abandoned 2019–20 and
2020–21 seasons.
