was a long running and successful amateur football club based in Basingstoke.

The club were founded in 1971 as a pub side, Soldiers Return, and originally played Sunday football before switching to Saturday where they joined the Basingstoke League.

Upon election the team then became known as SR Basingstoke and promptly proceeded to win promotion as champions in their debut season and soon established themselves in Division 1.

When the Chiltonian League was absorbed by the extended Hellenic League in 2000, RS Basingstoke joined and were placed in Division 1 East where they finished runners-up in their first season, but again due to ground grading were unable to apply for promotion.

2004–05 was sadly to prove the last season for the club as, despite being in a comfortable mid-table position, a player exodus resulted in the side withdrawing from the competition in January 2005 and folding.
