History
A previous club, Teversal Miners Welfare, had existed in the town since the 1918s, playing at the same Carnarvon Street ground as is used today, but had long since dropped to playing youth football by the time the current senior set up re-established in 1986, under the name M W Teversal. The closure of the two local collieries (Teversal and Silverhill) lead to a period of uncertainty, but fortunately the local Ashfield District Council took over the trusteeship of the complex in 1989, with the name becoming the Teversal Grange Sports and Social Centre. The football club followed suit, changing the name to Teversal Grange. A further name-change took place in 2000 when they dropped the "Grange" to become simply Teversal F.C.
Upon formation, Miners Welfare Teversal joined the Central Midlands League, winning that league's second division in their inaugural season.[1] but dropped down to the more local Nottinghamshire Alliance in 1991. After a spell of seven years in that company, but no league titles, they re-joined the Central Midlands in its lower Premier Division.[2] The quality of the facilities available led to promotion to the Supreme Division in 2001, where they again consolidated for a period, this time four years, again without picking up the league title. Their third place in 2004–05 was enough however to merit a further promotion, and they commenced the 2006–07 campaign in the Northern Counties East Football League Division One, where they have stayed since. The club competed in the FA Vase for the first time in 2003–04 and two seasons later they made their debut appearance in the FA Cup.[3]
Teversal hosted Scarborough Athletic in the latter club's first competitive game in 2007. A crowd of 427 attended the game.
