Wembley Football Club is an English semi-professional football club based in Wembley, in the London Borough of Brent, London, England.[1] Founded in 1946, the club currently play in the Combined Counties League Premier Division North.
They play in red and white and are nicknamed "The Lions",[1] due to the lion on the coat of arms for the old Borough of Wembley. Traditional local rivals for Wembley are Harrow Borough and Edgware Town, while Wealdstone F.C. are also regarded as rivals although, as Wealdstone have regularly played at a higher level, meetings between the clubs have been rare.
