Wimborne Town Football Club, nicknamed “The Magpies,” is a non-league football club based in Wimborne, Dorset.
Established in 1878, they currently compete in the Pitching In Southern Football League Premier South, which is part of the seventh tier of English football. The team calls The Wyatt Homes Stadium their home ground.
Originally serving both football and rugby, the club helped form the South Hampshire and Dorset Football Association in 1884 and the Dorset County Football Association three years later. Its first trophy was the Dorset Minor Cup in 1913, followed by three Dorset League Division Two titles and several county cup wins during the 1930s.
Ground improvements at Cuthbury preceded admission to the Western League in 1981. The side joined the Wessex League in 1987, winning three titles and two league-and-cup doubles during a 23-season spell. It also reached the FA Cup first round in 1982/83 and won the 1992 FA Vase at Wembley, before promotion to the Southern League in 2009/10.
League restructuring brought promotion to Step 3 in 2018 after a play-off final defeat. The club moved to New Cuthbury in December 2020, was relegated in 2021/22, and came under consortium ownership during that season. It won Southern League Division One South in 2023/24 and returned to Step 3; the ground was renamed the Wyatt Homes Stadium in July 2024, and the team finished tenth the following season.
