Banstead Athletic Football Club was founded in 1944 as Banstead Juniors and adopted its current name during the 1946–47 season. That first season proved to be pivotal, as we secured the Surrey Intermediate Cup. Following this success, we clinched back-to-back league titles, allowing us to advance to the Surrey Senior League in 1949.
Our early years were marked by domination, winning the Surrey Senior League title four consecutive times from 1950 to 1954, with Harry Clark netting an astonishing 81 goals in just 26 matches in the 1950-51 season.
The team continued to excel, finishing as runners-up in the subsequent two seasons before claiming our fifth title in 1956-57. In the 1964-65 season, we added another league title to our achievements, which led us to join the Spartan League. The merger of the Spartan League and Metropolitan–London League in 1975 saw us compete in the newly formed London Spartan League, where we became founder members of Division One.
