Charlton Athletic Football Club
Charlton Athletic Football Club is a football club based in Charlton, South East London. The club was founded in 1905 and currently plays at The Valley in Charlton. On June 9, 1905, a number of youth clubs in the south-east London area, including both East Street Mission and Blundell Mission, combined to form Charlton Athletic Football Club.
Making rapid progress through the local leagues, Charlton joined the Kent League shortly after the First World War, turned professional when the club joined the Southern League in 1920, and was elected to Division Three (South) of the Football League-proper in 1921.
Historically, the club’s most successful period was the 1930s, when the club’s highest league finishes were recorded, and the 1940s, when the club reached the FA Cup final twice, winning in 1947.
