Kiveton Park F.C.

Kiveton Park Football Club is a football club based in Kiveton Park, South Yorkshire, England. They are currently members of the and play at Wales High School. History Although a team representing the village played two games with a side from Anston during the 1877–78 season, Kiveton Park FC was not formed until 1881. Two years later, the club affiliated with the Sheffield Football Association. Its first club colours were believed to be red and black quarters. In 1891–92 they were founder members of the Sheffield & District Football League (being Chesterfield F.C.'s first ever league opponents on the first day of that season) and lifted their first trophy after beating Sheepbridge in the final of the Sheffield Minor Cup. For 1893–94 the Minor Cup changed from a knockout competition to a league, and Kiveton moved to join, also entering the Hatchard League at the same time. They were the first winners of the latter in 1894 and repeated the success two years later, remaining in the competition until the outbreak of the First World War.
