Division. The club then remained in the premiership until the end of the 2002–03 season when upon finishing bottom were relegated to Division one east. The 2002–03 season also saw the club enter the FA Cup for the first time, when they met Gosport Borough in the preliminary round, but lost 2–1. The following season the club bounced back up as Champions. The 2010–11 season saw the club become Hellenic league Premier Division champions, under the management of Andy Wallbridge. However the club were denied promotion to the Southern Football League as their ground did not have a boundary fence in place, that effectively prevents people who haven't paid for entry from being able to watch matches. In the 2012-2013 season, the club achieved the Southern League Ground grading, but finished runners-up to a very strong Marlow side, and again missed out on promotion. In 2013-2014, the Freds won the uhlsport Hellenic Premier title again, and this time with the appropriate ground grading in place, saw promotion to Division One (South and West) of the Southern League. The Freds remained in the Southern League for three years, before seeing relegation back to the Hellenic League at the end of the 2016-17 season. In 2018-19, the Freds won the uhlsport Hellenic Premier title for the third time and regained their place in the Southern League, this time in the Division 1 Central section. The Reading Senior Cup was won for a further two times, in 2017-18 and 2018-19. The following two seasons at the higher level were not completed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but they finished bottom at the end of 2021-22 and were relegated back to the Hellenic. Throughout the years the Club has worked to upgrade the facilities at Alfredian Park. Purchased outright for the princely sum of £500 in 1922; floodlights were introduced in 1996 and new stands in 2012. The club merged with the junior section to become one entity in 2020, and re-introduced a Women’s team in 2015, meaning football is now offered from U7s through to adults for players of both genders. The club has a long lease on St Mary’s field behind the club, use of the adjacent school field, and another site at Tugwell to accommodate the growing number of teams. Ground Wantage Town play their home games at Alfredian Park, Manor Road, Wantage. Floodlights were added in 1996. Honours League honours
