História do Hassocks FC: A vila ferroviária e o futebol de West Sussex desde 1902

  Começo do século XX, Hassocks era uma vila ferroviária crucial para West Sussex, ligando Londres à costa sul do país.  Antes da criação oficial do Hassocks FC em 1902, o futebol já estava presente na área por meio de clubes vizinhos como o Burgess Hill Town (fundado em 1882) e o Haywards Heath Town (1888).  Em decorrência das décadas seguintes, o panorama local se tornaria mais amplo com a formação de times como o St Francis Rangers, que viriam a consolidar as competições distritais.Hoje o clube disputa a Isthmian League     South East Division O nivel 9 nove da pirâmide do futebol inglês.

Newtongrange Star Football Club is a Scottish junior football club based in the village of Newtongrange, Midlothian. The home ground is New Victoria Park. The facility includes an enclosed pitch with full floodlighting, covered enclosure, changing rooms, with a separate social club. The club also runs an actively used 7-a-side all-weather pitch, also floodlit.
Star reached the 1991 Scottish Junior Cup Final, before narrowly losing 1–0 to Auchinleck Talbot in an evenly matched contest.
The SJFA restructured prior to the 2006–07 season, and Star found themselves in the 15-team East Region, South Division. They finished as champions in their first season in the division and were promoted to the Premier League. The following season they just missed promotion to the Superleague which was achieved the following season 2008–09.
While still in the Premier League the Star defeated Superleague teams in their League Cup run, reaching the final against Camelon played at Bathgate. After 90 minutes the games was tied on 1–1. Going to a penalty shootout the Star won with a series of saves from the Star keeper. This was the first silverware for the club in some 20-years. In the Scottish Junior Cup progress was made to the quarter final only to concede to Kirkintilloch Rob Roy.
The first season in the Superleague ended with a creditable fourth position, after having been in second position for much of the season. However the 2010–11 season with a limited squad was less successful resulting in Graeme Armstrong resigning as manager in February 2011. During his five-years at the club Armstrong built a team around a few experienced players but mainly younger players with pace and skill. The teams he put out played an expansive game, with fit players playing at a high tempo, but with discipline, which drew plaudits from the supporters of the club and opposition alike.
John Coughlin, an ex-player and previously manager of senior clubs like St Mirren, Stenhousemuir and Berwick Rangers stepped in on a temporary basis while a permanent appointment was made.
On 12 May 2011, Alan Miller, an ex-player and most recently manager of Bonnyrigg Rose was appointed manager. He brought with him his assistants at Bonnyrigg, Ian Black and Finlay Wells.
