History

Mile Oak FC was formed in 1960 and started in Division Eight of the Brighton, Hove & District Football League and won the division at the first attempt, and promoted to Division Six.[1] Further promotion followed in the 1963–64 season when the club finished as runners up in Division Six and the club was promoted again the following season.[2] The club's first attempt at Division Four saw them finish as champions, however four seasons later and the club was back in Division Five.[3][4] A season later they were back in Division Four and the 1971–72 campaign saw them finish as runners-up and promotion Division Two.[5][6] The club had instant success in Division Two finishing as champions, a feat they repeated the next season in Division One[7][8] The 1980–81 season saw the club become winners of the Brighton League.[9]

In 1986 made the decision to leave the Brighton, Hove & District Football League to become a senior club in the Sussex County League, and an application was made to join the Southern Counties Combination League, which was a feeder into the Sussex 'pyramid'.[10] After just one season, the club won promotion to Division Three of the County League as champions.

After five seasons, promotion was gained to Division Two in 1991–92, as runners-up to Hassocks, and then to Division One as champions in 1994–95. They stayed in this division for three seasons, and were relegated back to Division Two in 1997–98

In 2005–06 they won some silverware after defeating Sidlesham 1–0 in the Final of the Division Two Challenge Cup.[10]

In the 2008–09 season the club again gained promotion to Division One but only survived one season back in the top flight of the Sussex League.[11]
