Wokingham & Emmbrook F.C. are a football club based in Wokingham, Berkshire, England. The club was formed in 2004, as a merger of Wokingham Town and Emmbrook Sports. Their nickname is "The Satsumas", a reference to the team's colours.
Wokingham Town were champions of the Isthmian League First Division in 1980-81, reached the first round of the FA Cup in 1982-83 taking Cardiff City to a replay and the semi-finals of the FA Trophy in 1987-88. Among their former players were Darren Barnard, Terry Brown, Paul Bence and Phil Alexander. Established in 1989, Emmbrook Sports had a much more modest history, being long-term members of the Reading League.
In November 2007, Wokingham Borough Council submitted a planning application to improve the facilities at Wokingham & Emmbrook's Cantley Park home. This would include a small stand accommodating 250 people and also flood lighting. [1]
In December 2009, the club agreed a ground share with near neighbours Bracknell Town which ensured that after winning promotion in season 2009/10, they were able to compete in the Hellenic League Premier Division. [2]
