Founded all the way back in 1898, Brockenhurst Football Club first kicked a ball near the picturesque Rhinefield Ornamental Drive. A fledgling club with grand ambitions, they were among the founding fathers of the New Forest League, a competition they would soon dominate, lifting the trophy a countless number of times.

The club's early years were marked by a nomadic existence. Just before the Great War, they swapped the serene fields near Rhinefield for a more bustling location between the historic Rose and Crown and the quaint Snakecatcher pubs. Peacetime brought further change, as the Badgers, as they were affectionately known, moved to Fathersfield, a ground that would serve as their home for several years.

In 1931, the club embarked on another move, this time to the picturesque Black Knoll. Two years later, they etched their name into local footballing history by lifting the prestigious New Forest Lads Cup. Yet, the wanderlust continued, and in 1937, they found a new home at Oberfield.

The Second World War brought a temporary halt to the club's activities, but once the conflict ended, they returned to the field, settling at Tile Barn. However, their nomadic spirit persisted, and in 1951, they made their final move to their current home at Grigg Lane.

The 1960s saw a period of great success for Brockenhurst. They were crowned champions of Hampshire Division Three and lifted the Bournemouth Senior Cup, a testament to their growing reputation. In 1971, they earned promotion to Division One, and just five years later, they clinched the league title, solidifying their position as a force to be reckoned with.

When the Wessex League was established in 1986, Brockenhurst were among the founding members, continuing their rich history of competitive football. In 2012, they returned to the Wessex Premier League as Division One champions, reaching the finals of both the Southampton DFA Senior Cup and the Wessex League Cup, showcasing their enduring ambition and competitive spirit.
