Fluxton Football Club
Fluxton Football Club was founded in 2012 by brothers Alex and Oliver Paget. FFC play their home games at Tipton St John in the Devon & Exeter League. The club won its first match 5-1 against the Tipton St John Reserves.
Fluxton FC were promoted in their first season from Division 7 to 6 after finishing 2nd in the league and were promoted again the following year and will start the 2014/15 season in Division 5.
Fluxton FC are known for their fluidic passing and high pressing game which gave them success last season as their 3-5-2 formation adopted by player manager Chris Sercombe forced a late surge to promotion. Fluxton FC are also renowned for their fair play attitude towards the game which they received great credit for in their first two seasons, a true testament to the founding Paget brothers who emphasise this Fluxton Philosophy.
Fluxton FC were crowned Devon & Exeter League 2014/15 Division 5 Champions on Saturday 25 April after beating Sandford FC 0-6 away taking the title by one point from Honiton Town 2nd who finished their season prior to the final weekend.
In a club statement, the Fluxton official said a big thanks to all the fans, players and everyone involved at the club as the champagne was sprayed in the background. "Fluxton are only one of a few teams that since their creation in 2012 have had promotion after promotion and this league title is only fitting to the Fluxton way".
