Club History

Littlehampton Town has a long history in Sussex football and has developed through the regional leagues before earning opportunities at a higher level. The Marigolds’ modern story includes progression through the Southern Combination and a place in Step 4 for the 2026/27 campaign. The FA’s 2026/27 allocations listed Littlehampton among the clubs reprieved on a points-per-game basis after a vacancy arose at Step 4.

That reprieve gives the club a valuable opportunity to test itself against a new set of opponents across southern England. Competing at Step 4 also brings new travel demands, different grounds to visit and a chance to build the club’s profile beyond Sussex.
