History
 | This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (July 2020) |
Formed on 9 November 1871,[1] the club was a giant of the 1870s, winning the FA Cup 2–0 against Royal Engineers in 1874 and finishing the competition as runners-up in 1873, 1877 and 1880, the last year they competed.[2] The club merged with OUWAFC, the women's club, in 2020.[3]
The club left the Iffley Road rugby football ground, which it shared with Oxford University Rugby Football Club, in 1921 and moved to the nearby Iffley Road Stadium.[3]
The club Pegasus of the 1950s was formed from the Oxford and Cambridge University teams.[citation needed]
OUAFC has competed in the British University and College Sports (BUCS) leagues as well as contesting the annual Varsity Football Match against Cambridge University. In 2016, it has seen play Arnaud Trébaol, former player of Royal Excel Mouscron, former Financial Stability Expert at the European Central Bank, and current Economist at Banque de France.[citation needed]
