Lichfield City Football Club is a football club based in Lichfield, Staffordshire, England. They are members of the Midland League Premier Division and play at the City Ground.
History
The original Lichfield City joined the Birmingham Combination in 1923, but left after two seasons. The modern club was established in 1970 as Lichfield Football Club and joined Division One B of the West Midlands (Regional) League in 1976. They were placed in Division One the following season when the league was reorganised and remained in the division until being relegated to Division Two at the end of the 1985–86 season. The club were Division Two runners-up in 1989–90, earning promotion back to Division One. In 1994 they were renamed Lichfield City. Their first season under the new name saw the club finish as runners-up in Division One, earning promotion to the Premier Division.
Despite finishing in mid-table in their first season in the Premier Division, Lichfield resigned from the league and became a Sunday league team. They returned to Saturday football when the club joined Division Three of the Midland Combination in 2008. Despite only finishing fifth in the division in 2008–09, they were promoted to Division Two. In 2010–11 the club won the league's Challenge Vase with a 2–1 win over Continental Star Reserves in the final. They also finished fourth in the division, earning promotion to Division One. Another fourth-place finish the following season led to them being promoted to the Premier Division.
In 2014 the Midland Combination merged with the Midland Alliance to form the Midland League, with Lichfield placed in Division One. In 2021 the club were promoted to the Premier Division based on their results in the abandoned 2019–20 and 2020–21 seasons.
Der Club wurde ursprünglich als Lichfield St. Chad's gegründet und trat 1948 der Birmingham Combination bei. In den 1950er Jahren gewann der Club dreimal den Combination Cup. 1960 wechselte der Verein in die West Midlands (Regional) League und gewann 1964/65 die Division One. Zwei Jahre später gewann Lichfield City den West Midlands League Cup.
1972 trat der Verein der Southern League bei. Nach zwei Abstiegen in Folge wurde Lichfield City 1979 Gründungsmitglied der Midland League. Der Verein gewann die Midland League 1985/86 und 1992/93. 1994/95 wurde Lichfield City Meister der Division One Central der Northern Premier League.
Der größte Erfolg des Vereins war das Erreichen des vierten Qualifikationsrunde des FA Cups in der Saison 1987/88. Lichfield City schied gegen den damaligen Zweitligisten Leeds United aus.
Zu den bekanntesten Spielern, die für Lichfield City gespielt haben, gehören der ehemalige englische Nationalspieler Jack Rowley und der ehemalige Torhüter von Manchester United, Les Sealey.
