List of Sittingbourne F.C. seasons

Sittingbourne F.C. is an English football club based in Sittingbourne, Kent. The club were founded in 1886[1] and adopted professionalism from the 1898–99 season,[2] but returned to amateurism for a short period between 1931[3] and 1946.[4] The club have played in various semi-professional leagues based in the south-east of England: they were founder members of the Kent League in 1894 and were also members of the South Eastern Counties League, the Southern League, the reincarnated Kent League, the Isthmian League and (as a subsidiary competition periodically between 1901 and 1964) the Thames and Medway Combination. The club colours are black and red, they play home matches at Woodstock Park and are nicknamed 'the Brickies'. They currently play in the Isthmian League South East Division.

Sittingbourne have played in the FA Cup since 1894 excluding periods of absence in 1897, 1910, during World War I and between 1931 and 1946; their best performances in the competition were during the 1920s when they reached the sixth qualifying round on one occasion and the second round proper twice. Additionally they have competed in the FA Trophy since 1976 (reaching the quarter-finals in 2025), excepting between 1987 and 1992 when they were eligible for the FA Vase.
