Ledbury Town F.C. was a football club based in Ledbury, Herefordshire, England. The club was established in 1893 and closed down in 2015. In the 2004–05 season, they reached the 4th round of the FA Vase. For the 2013–14 season, they were members of the West Midlands (Regional) League Division One after gaining promotion from Division Two at the end of the 2012–13 season, but withdrew from the league during the following season. Unusually for a club at this level, until 2006 they had a player in their squad who had represented his country at full international level, in the form of Latvian Alex Volosanovs. ==History== Ledbury Town joined the West Midlands (Regional) League in 1974. Four years later, despite only finishing fifth, they were promoted to the Premier Division ahead of higher placed teams due to the quality of the facilities at their New Street ground. After finishing second from bottom in 1983, they dropped out of the league and played only local football for the next 8 years. In 1991 they joined the Midland Combination, initially in Division One, but the following season they finished bottom and dropped into Division Two, where they remained until 1999 when they decided to switch leagues and return to the West Midlands (Regional) League, initially in Division One (South). In 2001, despite having one point deducted due to an irregularity, they finished as champions and were promoted to the Premier Division. A high point in the club's history came in November 2003 when they played Manchester United in a benefit game for a local family who had lost several relatives in a motorway crash. A strong United side ran out 4–2 victors at New Street. The club pulled out of the West Midlands (Regional) League in late 2014 and closed down completely in January 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ledbury Town F.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
