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      Mousehole released a statement confirming they had withdrawn from the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.
