Torpoint Athletic Football Club is a football club based in Torpoint, Cornwall, England. They are currently members of the Western League Premier Division and play at the Mill.
History
The club was formed as a merger of Torpoint Triumph and Torpoint Defiance.[1] They won the Cornwall Senior Cup, the Cornwall Charity Cup and the Plymouth & District League in 1905–06, and retained the Senior Cup the following season, before winning it again in 1908–09 and 1909–10.[1] After World War I the club won the Senior Cup in 1919–20, 1921–22, 1922–23, 1928–29 and 1932–33.
In 1962 Torpoint joined the South Western League, going on to win the league title in 1964–65 and 1966–67.[2] They were runners-up in the league in 1995–96, a season which also saw them win the Cornwall Senior Cup for the first time since the 1930s. In 2003–04 the club won the League Cup.
In 2007 the South Western League merged with the Devon County League to form the South West Peninsula League, with Torpoint placed in the Premier Division. Following league reorganisation at the end of the 2018–19 season, the club were moved to the Premier Division East.
