Smethwick Rangers F.C. is a football club based in Smethwick,West Midlands, England. They joined the West Midlands (Regional) League Division One South in 1996. In the 2005-06 season, they were members of the West Midlands (Regional) League Premier Division, however they resigned from this league at the end of the season and appear to have folded their adult men's team.

History

The club first joined the West Midlands (Regional) League in 1996 under the name 'Smethwick Rangers', initially playing in Division One South. In their second season in the division they were champions and were promoted to the Premier Division, where they remained until their demise.

In 2000 the club changed its name to Warley Rangers after signing a sponsorship deal with Warley Accident Repair Centre. In the same season former Wolves player Robbie Dennison served as their player-coach.

In 2001 they reverted to their former name, but a year later they changed their name once again, this time to Smethwick Sikh Temple. As a predominantly Asian team, they have competed in the UK Asian Football Championships, and in 1994 they played at Villa Park in the final of the Aston Villa Cup, a tournament for local teams hosted by the Premiership club. In 2005 they reverted back to the name Smethwick Rangers.
