History

Ellesmere is a historic market town nestling in the North West corner of Shropshire on the Welsh border. Its large number of lakes or meres gives it its name of Shropshire’s “Lake District” and makes it a popular place for tourists. The club badge of a swan represents an affinity with the large number of these birds that populate the local waterways.

The club in its present form was founded in 1969, although there have been football teams in the town since the early 1900s. These early teams played their games on the Wharf Meadow, which at that time was within the grounds of the local dairy (where the present Tesco is now). The Railway pub in the town was the venue for the first meeting of the soon to be Railway Rangers playing in the Oswestry and District League in their first season.

The club moved its headquarters to the Market Hotel in 1974 and the club name was changed to Ellesmere Rangers. They remained in the Oswestry & District League until the following season when they gained promotion into the Shrewsbury and West Shropshire League.

The Rangers first major honour was in 1981 when, managed by our present club secretary John Edge, the club lifted the Shropshire Junior cup at the Gay Meadow beating Weston United 2-1.

Further moves upwards were achieved, and by 1988/89 Rangers were in the Shropshire County League.

2004/5 saw them in the West Midland League Division 2 where back to back promotions were achieved, and 2005/6 saw the Rangers competing in the West Midland first division.

In the 2008/9 season a strong challenge for promotion was mounted. This was narrowly missed by a couple of points and 4th place was achieved, putting the team in a strong position for the following season.

The 2009/10 year saw the club get promotion to the Midland Alliance. An incredible season was capped off during a memorable night at the Prostar Arena, the home of Shrewsbury Town, when the Rangers beat Market Drayton Town (two leagues higher) to win the Shropshire Challenge Cup.

The 2010/11 season was very much one of consolidation, finishing a very creditable 13th position in our first year at this level and also reaching the final of the Walsall Senior Cup at Walsall’s Banks Stadium.

For the 2013/2014 season Rangers were now back in the West Midland
Regional League Premier Division and finished the season in 11th place.

For the 2014/2015 season Dan Stevens, the manager of our very successful U18 Youth Team for the previous 7 years, stepped up to the first team manager’s position alongside Richard Brown as assistant manager and finished in a very credible 4th place .

During the 2015/2016 season the club saw some major changes to the Beech Grove facility, the old clubhouse was demolished and replaced with a new one, the changing rooms were extended and refurbished.

2018/19 season again saw major changed at the club after 14 years. (11 in the West Midland League and 3 in the Midland Alliance League)we were moved into the North West Counties First Division South.

The club has a thriving junior section as well as the U18 side, who play in the Midland Floodlit League Northern Premier Division ,also a senior women’s team who play in the new Shropshire Womens League and Ellesmere Rangers Sunday team who play in Division 1 of the Shrewsbury and District Football League.

The club is proud to be a close knit family unit and the progress on the pitch can only be achieved because of the efforts of the backroom people who put in a huge amount of work to push the club on to further success.
