Truro City F.C. are a football club based in Truro, Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. They were founding members of the South Western League in 1951 and won the title five times in their history. Apart from a three season spell in the 1970s, when they played in the Cornwall Combination after losing their ground as part of a by-pass development, they remained in the South Western League until 2006, when they joined the Western Football League, achieving promotion from Division One to the Premier Division in their first season.
The club's Chairman Kevin Heaney owns a housing company and has attracted many players from higher leagues, and has stated that his goal for Truro City is to become Cornwall's representative in the Football League.
Truro were FA Cup regulars through the 1950s, but have been sporadic entrants since and returned to the competition for the 2006-07 season for the first time in 13 years. They have also been irregular participants in the FA Vase, with best effort prior to the current season coming in 1996-97 when they exited at the third round stage at the hands of Banstead Athletic.
In the 2006-07 season, they won the competition, beating A.F.C. Totton 3-1 at Wembley on Sunday May 13th.
