Ivybridge Town F.C.
Ivybridge Town Football Club is a football club based in Ivybridge, Devon, England. Established in 1925, the club was a founder member of the Devon County League in 1992.
For the first decade of their membership of the County League, they were regular strugglers, finishing in the bottom half of the table for seven successive seasons. Since the turn of the millennium, they had become one of the stronger sides in the league, culminating in taking the title for the first time in the 2005–06 season.
They play at Erme Valley, a multi-sport venue just across the main A38 road to the south of the town with an average attendance of 50–100 for each game. Until 2010 it was one of the more basic venues in the League, and as such inhibited any ambitions to progress further up the National League System. This was also the reason they have yet to make their debut in national FA competitions

Famous quotes containing the word town:
“Such a set of tittle tattle, prittle prattle visitants! Oh Dear! I am so sick of the ceremony and fuss of these fall lall people! So much dressing—chitchat—complimentary nonsense—In short, a country town is my detestation. All the conversation is scandal, all the attention, dress, and almost all the heart, folly, envy, and censoriousness.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
