Kingstonian Football Club are an English, non-league football club that will play the 2005-06 season in the Isthmian League First Division after being relegated from the Isthmian League Premier Division.

The club plays at the Kingsmeadow Stadium in Kingston upon Thames, built in 1989, after leaving their Richmond Road ground. The club shares Kingsmeadow with AFC Wimbledon, who own the ground.

Kingstonian has a proud tradition and has had a recent period of great success, winning the Isthmian League in 1998 and The FA Trophy in 1999 and 2000 under renowned manager Geoff Chapple, before beating two professional clubs on their way to a fourth round replay in The FA Cup in 2001.

Relegation and financial problems have seen a downturn in the club's fortunes in recent years but with new Chairman Jimmy Cochrane taking over the club in February, the K's are now poised to rebuild.
