History
Brereton Social F.C. was formed in 1899. The team have spent three separate spells as members of the West Midlands (Regional) League. The first began in 1968–69 and lasted for twenty years. During that time they won promotion form Division One in 1971–72 but they never finished higher than fourth until they left the league during the 1987–88 season to join the Staffordshire County League (South).
They rejoined the West Midlands (Regional) League in 1995–96 and stayed in Division One North until the club folded in 1999. A year later the club was reformed and rejoined the league, finishing in second place in 2005–06 before being transferred sideways to the Midland Combination Premier Division. In 2008 the club was relegated to Division One. For the 2010–11 season, the team were initially members of the Midland Combination Division One, which sits at level 11 of the English football league system, but resigned on 28 August 2010.
