Cockfield Football Club was an association football team from the village of Cockfield, County Durham in the north of England which was dubbed the "Village Wonder Team" in the 1920s after achieving success in the national FA Amateur Cup.
[1] In the 1922–23 season, the club reached the semi-finals of the FA Amateur Cup, losing to Evesham Town.
The final was played at Ayresome Park, Middlesbrough, where Cockfield twice took the lead but eventually lost 3–2 to the holders Leyton in front of over 12,000 spectators.
[6] By 2006 the club was playing in the very minor Crook and District League and its home ground at Hazel Grove was in an extreme state of dereliction.
[3] Lack of funding from the parish council for repairs to the changing rooms at Hazel Grove ultimately led to the club folding in 2010.
