Dorking Wanderers Football Club is a semi-professional[1] football club based in Dorking, Surrey, England. Affiliated to the Surrey County Football Association,[2] they are currently members of the National League South, the sixth tier of English football, and play at Meadowbank. Formed in 1999 by a group of friends as a recreational amateur team playing grassroots football, the club began life in the Crawley & District League and went on to win twelve promotions in their first 23 seasons, reaching the National League in 2022, where they remained for two seasons before suffering their first-ever relegation. Having played for the club in its earlier years, club founder Marc White continues to be the chairman and first team manager to the present day.[3]
