A.F.C. Mansfield is a football club based in Forest Town, a suburb of Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England. They are currently members of the Northern Counties East League Premier Division and play at the Forest Town Stadium.
A.F.C. Mansfield was formed in June 2012 by three former directors of Mansfield Town following a series of disputes within the club's management. The new club were immediately given a place in the Central Midlands League, and were placed in the North Division.
After finishing as runners-up in their first season, the club won the North Division in 2013–14, earning promotion to Division One of the Northern Counties East League. They also completed the double, winning the Central Midlands League Cup, beating Thorne Colliery 2–1 in the final.
The club finished seventh in Division One in 2014–15. The following season saw them finish as runners-up, earning promotion to the Premier Division. They also competed in the FA Cup for the first time, losing 2–1 at South Normanton Athletic in the extra-preliminary round.
