Rivacre Park
Rivacre Park
Rivacre Park is a small football stadium with an official capacity of 2500 people, and is home to Vauxhall Motors FC. VMFC play in the Conference North, and are easily one of the smallest teams in the division, a fact well represented in the end of season tables, where Vauxhall have finished in relegation spots in 2 of the past 3 years (at end of 2009-10 season), only to be reprieved relegation on each occasion. Despite this, Vauxhall have played in the Conference North since its creation in 2004. Perhaps Vauxhall's most famous moment, was when they knocked out Queens Park Rangers (now of the Championship) in the FA Cup 1st round in the 2002.

Here Vauxhall were just about to play AFC Telford, and went on to lose 0-1, with an official attendance of 377, which will probably Vauxhall's largest attendance of the season.
