Team Info
Morecambe Football Club, known as "The Shrimps," is a professional team based in the coastal town of Morecambe, Lancashire, currently competing in the English National League, the fifth tier of the football pyramid. The club's home is the Mazuma Stadium, a modern ground with views of Morecambe Bay. Founded in 1920, the team's distinctive red shirts are a familiar sight, and the club is owned by the local community through the Morecambe Football Club Community Trust. For most of its history, Morecambe was a stalwart of non-league football, with its peak era being a sustained period of success in the Conference National. The defining moment arrived in 2007 when, under manager Sammy McIlroy, the club won the FA Trophy at Wembley Stadium and then achieved promotion to the Football League for the first time via the Conference play-offs, a historic double. The club enjoyed a memorable 11-year stay in League Two, which included a dramatic promotion to League One in 2021 under manager Derek Adams. After relegation, the Shrimps now compete in the National League. The club is renowned for its strong community ties and loyal fan base, with Christie the Crab as a beloved mascot. Morecambe remains a club with a giant-hearted spirit, continually battling against the odds.
