  ## History
  
  The club was established in 2014 by Kevin Oakes and friends as a Sunday league club. They joined Division Two of the London & Kent Suburban League, and finished third in the division in their first season, resulting in promotion to Division One. After finishing fourth in Division One the following season, the club switched to Saturday football, joining Division Three West of the Kent County League. The Sunday side continued for another two seasons.
  
  Welling won the Barry Bundock West Kent Challenge Shield in 2016–17 and were Division Three West runners-up, earning promotion to Division Two West. They went on to win Division Two West and the Kent Junior Cup the following season, also retaining the Barry Bundock West Kent Challenge Shield. The club then successfully applied to join Division One of the Southern Counties East League, a jump of three divisions.
  
  In their first season in the Southern Counties East League, Welling were Division One champions, earning promotion to the Premier Division.
