History

Canvey Island F.C. were formed in 1926 but had not achieved major success prior to the early 1990s. The club had floated around the regional amateur leagues in Essex for that time. Former player Jeff King became both manager and owner of the then Essex Senior League side in 1992 and has led the club through four promotions in the football pyramid, reaching the Conference after a 2003/04 season that saw them win the Isthmian League by 19 points - winning the title with seven games to spare.
