Cambridge City Football Club is a football club based in Cambridgeshire, England, who currently play in the Northern Premier League Division One Midlands. Formed in 1908 as Cambridge Town F.C. in Cambridge, they played their home games at the City Ground, Cambridge, between 1922 and 2013, and changed their name in 1951 when Cambridge was granted city status.
