History

The clubhouse in 2019

The club was founded in 1924 by attendees of the local Wesleyan Chapel and accordingly was named Quorn Methodists F.C., changing its name in 1952. In 1937 the club joined the Leicestershire Senior League. Immediately after World War II they played in the Central Division, and then from 1948 in Division 2 after a league re-organisation. Quorn won this division in 1950 and then followed up by winning the first division the following season.

Over the next fifty years the club moved up and down between the divisions on four occasions, finally cementing their place in the renamed Premier Division in the late 1990s, before claiming the league title, and with it promotion to the Midland Alliance in 2001.

In 2003 the club was the only one at its level to sell a player to a Football League team, when Luke Varney moved to Crewe Alexandra for £50,000.

In the 2006–07 season they finished 3rd in the Midland Alliance and, due to the expansion of the Northern Premier League First Division into two regional divisions, were therefore accepted into the Northern Premier League Division One South. In May 2007 the club received a £500000 windfall after Luke Varney's £2,000,000 move from Crewe to Charlton Athletic.

In 2011 Quorn won the Westerby Cup for the first time with a 5–4 victory over Hinckley United at Walkers Stadium under the management of Lawrie Dudfield, but were relegated from the Northern Premier League Division One South during the same season.

John Folwell was appointed as their new manager in May 2013, joining from local rivals Barrow Town. He resigned in January 2015 due to disagreements with the chairman. Two time former manager Dougie Keast was agreed to take over until the end of the 2014–15 season.

Dougie Keast remained at the helm until December 2017, when former Hinckley AFC manager Carl Abbott was appointed, joining the club from Northern Premier Division Market Drayton Town. On Wednesday 8 May 2019 - Carl Abbott left Quorn AFC to join Evesham United FC.

Following the COVID-19 outbreak, the 2019/2020 playing season was expunged. Quorn was in first place in the United Counties league (Step 5) when the football season was terminated on 16 March 2020. Former Burton Albion and Scunthorpe United midfielder Cleveland Taylor was appointed as the first team manager on 1 May 2020. He left the club on 14 October 2021.

Richard Lavery, who had been Assistant Manager at Nuneaton Borough, took over with the club languishing at the wrong end of the table in the UCL Premier North. Fortunes turned immediately, with the club recovering to finish in the top half of the table. The following season Lavery led the side to the playoffs in dramatic fashion, as an injury time winner in the final game of the season lifted the club in to second place.

There was still work to be done though and a long journey to the Essex coast saw Quorn triumph 5-0 away to Great Wakering Rovers in the inter-step playoff, catapulting the club back up to step four, the highest level the club have achieved to date.

In their return to step four football, Quorn got off to a fast start and also enjoyed their best run in the FA Trophy. Victories at home over Coventry Sphinx, Leek Town and AFC Telford United saw The Reds through to the first round proper. The run came to and end in an away trip against Stafford Rangers. The club maintained a top half placing throughout the season, sitting in seventh place when Lavery left the club to take over at Kettering Town, taking his assistant Tom Cherry with him.

Ant Carney, who had been player/coach, stepped up to take charge against Gresley Rovers just two days later, assisted by Matt Green. The pair began their reign with a 2-1 win at The Moat Ground, an 85th minute penalty by Ryan Beswick the difference on the day.
