History
The club was formed in June 2012, when South Devon League clubs Brixham United and Brixham Villa merged. Brixham Villa were founded in 1953 and had previously won the league in the 2006–07 season, while Brixham United had competed in the Western Football League and FA Vase during the late 1970s.After finishing runners up in the South Devon League, the club joined the South West Peninsula League Division One East in 2014 and spent five seasons there, finishing third in 2018–19. At the end of that season, the league was restructured, and Brixham successfully applied for promotion to the Premier Division East, at Step 6 of the National League System.
The club installed floodlights in order to comply with the conditions imposed upon them to enable their promotion to Step 6. They played their first match under floodlit conditions on 10 September 2019, a 2–1 win over Bovey Tracey.
During the 2022/23 season, Brixham achieved their greatest run in the Fa Vase competition, reaching the last 16 before losing on penalties to Corsham Town FC.
They completed their league success by winning every league game from mid-December 2022 all the way through to their final victory v Holsworthy FC, recording a total of 19 victories in succession.
