Description

Chasetown Football Club is an English football club based in the Chasetown area of Burntwood, Staffordshire. The club currently plays in the Southern League Division One Midlands and is nicknamed The Scholars, having been formed by affiliates of nearby Chase Terrace High School in the Chase Terrace area of Burntwood.

Chasetown gained national recognition in November 2005 when the BBC televised the club's FA Cup first round home tie with Oldham Athletic, in which the team held their Football League opposition to a 1-1 draw. A peak audience of 3.2 million people watched the game live. They went on to finish the 2005–06 season as Midland Alliance champions and thereby gain promotion to the Southern League.

Most recently, in the 2007/08 F.A Cup, they made the second round for the first time in their history when recording a surprise 2-0 victory against Team Bath.
