SHAWBURY PICKED UP THEIR FIRST WIN UNDER GILES (AND FIRST SINCE 22 JAN 11) WITH A 2–1 HOME VICTORY OVER WOLVERHAMPTON CASUALS AND A FINAL DAY WIN AT WELLINGTON CONFIRMED THAT SHAWBURY WOULD FINISH 17TH IN THE LEAGUE AND RETAIN THEIR PREMIER DIVISION STATUS. DAVE RICHARDS RESIGNED AS WEM TOWN MANAGER ON 7 MAY 2011 AFTER GUIDING THE CLUB FROM THE SHROPSHIRE COUNTY LEAGUE TO WEST MIDLANDS DIVISION 1 IN 3 SEASONS. HIS APPOINTMENT AS SHAWBURY'S NEW MANAGER WAS CONFIRMED ON WEDNESDAY 11 MAY 2011. HE WAS JOINED BY HIS ASSISTANT FROM WEM TOWN, SHAUN INGRAM, AND AFTER RULING HIMSELF OUT OF TAKING ON THE MANAGER'S ROLE, STEVE GILES WAS ALSO A PART OF THE BACKROOM STAFF. SHAWBURY UNITED FINISHED THE SEASON WITH A CREDITABLE 10TH POSITION, AND ALSO WON THE POWELL CHARITY CUP AGAINST MID CHESHIRE DIV TWO SIDE WHITCHURCH ALPORT. IN JUNE 2012 CHRIS KIRKUP WAS INSTATED AS THE NEW CHAIRMAN OF THE CLUB. FOR THE 2012–13 SEASON DAVE RICHARDS REMAINED AS FIRST TEAM MANAGER IN A SEASON THAT SAW SHAWBURY RETURN TO FA CUP ACTION FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE 2009–10 SEASON. RICHARDS WAS AT THE HELM WHEN SHAWBURY'S LEAGUE FORTUNES TOOK A TURN FOR THE BETTER, CULMINATING IN THE CLUB WINNING THE WEST MIDLANDS LEAGUE PREMIER DIVISION TITLE IN 2015/16. THE CLUB EMBARKED ON THEIR FIRST SEASON IN THE MIDLAND LEAGUE PREMIER DIVISION, AND WHILST ENJOYING MEMORABLE WINS AGAINST SOME OF THE BETTER TEAMS IN THE DIVISION, INCLUDING A 5–1 THUMPING OF FA CUP HEROES WESTFIELDS, THEY WERE THANKFUL FOR A FINAL-DAY VICTORY AT BROCTON, WHICH CONDEMNED WALSALL WOOD TO THE DROP INSTEAD OF SHAWBURY AND ENSURED THE CLUB FINISHED IN ITS HIGHEST-EVER LEAGUE POSITION OF 19TH. SHAWBURY SUFFERED SOME OFF THE FIELD WOES TOWARDS THE END OF THE SEASON, WITH THEM LEAVING THEIR HOME OF OVER TWENTY YEARS, THE BUTLER SPORTS GROUND IN WEM, AND HAVING TO RELOCATE TO LUDLOW FOOTBALL STADIUM, SOME 40 MILES AWAY. SHAWBURY WERE NOT IN A POSITION TO BE ABLE TO HELP PAY FOR NEW FLOODLIGHTS ON THEIR RENTED GROUND, AND DUE TO THE LIGHTS THEN HAVING TO BE DISMANTLED, HAD TO FIND ANOTHER SUITABLE GROUND, WITH LUDLOW BEING THE ONLY OPTION FOR THEM TO REMAIN AT STEP 5.

a history - continued...... On 13 April 2019, Joint Managers Dave Richards and Stu Lewis mutually agreed to leave their roles so Richards could concentrate on his duty as Chairman. Subsequently Lewis left to join WMRL Division One side Allscott Heath as manager the same summer. On 17 May 2019, the club announced former A.F.C. Telford United Youth Head Coach, Declan Allen, as the new First Team manager. He was joined at the club by Sean Evans. The club went onto to reach the first round proper of the FA Vase for just the seventh time in the club's history before losing to Uttoxeter Town in a replay. After a good start, results slipped, and the side went on a run of 10 games without a win. Luck changed following a 2-1 victory over former landlords, Wem Town, in January. The club having slipped to 3rd bottom went on a run which saw them pick up 3 wins and a draw from their next 6 games lifting them to 15th a just 5 points from a mid-table finish before the outbreak of COVID-19 cut the season short. At the end of the 2020–21 season the club were transferred to Division One of the Midland League when the Premier Division of the West Midlands (Regional) League lost its status as a step six division. Following manager Connor Patterson leaving for Shifnal at the end of the 2022/23 season, the club appointed Richard Brown, ex-Walsall, as manager, assisted by Ronnie Box and Rocky Carpenter. In September 2014, the club submitted planning proposals to Shropshire Council for their new ground situated off of the A53. Planning permission was granted in December 2014. In January 2020 the club announced that land had been secured for the project. On 21 May 2023, the club announced they were to play home games at the Community 4G pitch at New Meadow for the 2023–24 season, bringing the club closer to returning to Shawbury. Work was completed at the new ground in Shawbury and opened in time for season 2024/25 with a new clubhouse, 100-seater stand and floodlights. The site accommodates 3-full size pitches as well as 3 junior pitches. The club now runs over 20 junior teams, including MJPL sides, a women’s team plus a Sunday side. Season 2025/26 saw the club add a Saturday Development side playing in the Salop Leisure League plus two Veterans teams and walking football team. First team manager Richard Brown left his role in December 2025 and was replaced by ex-Telford Town manager Matthew Boswell. Coach Ronnie Box and sports therapist Becky Hazelgrove remained, although Ronnie left soon afterwards to assist with the Development team. Boswell was joined on the coaching staff by Stevie McCormick, Steve Travi and Ben Darrall. Shawbury ended the season 2025/26 positively, climbing away from potential relegation danger and reaching the final of the TJ Vickers Shropshire Premier Cup at Shrewsbury’s Croud Meadow.
