Buckingham Town F.C. is a Semi-professional football club based in Buckingham, England. They were established in 1883 and were one of the founding members of the Hellenic League in 1953. After spending only four seasons in the Hellenic League, they returned to local football, not re-emerging at a higher level until 1974.

From 1974 to 1986, they were members of the United Counties League, with the Championship of that league earning them promotion to the Southern League. The club stayed in the Southern League for eleven seasons before suffering relegation back to te United Counties League in 1997. They are currently members of the United Counties League Division One after suffering relegation from the Premier Division in 2007.

In the 1984-85 season, they reached the 1st round proper of the FA Cup, while their best FA Vase performances were reaching the Quarter Finals twice in three seasons in the early 1990s. While in the Southern League, they competed in the FA Trophy on three occasions, but failed to win a single tie.

Famous Players include Christopher Wreh and, from 1984 to 1986, the cricketer Wayne Larkins, though he was cup-tied for the FA Cup game against Orient having played in the Preliminary round for Wellingborough Town before joining Buckingham.

Last season they finished 8th.
