Grashall Olympic F.C.

Grashall Olympic were a short-lived semi-professional team from the Grashall district of Shiresden, on the west coast. After thirteen seasons, they merged with the amateur Shiresden Juniors F.C. to form Shiresden United F.C..

History
The city of Shiresden was one of the first from outside the Southern region to get its own football team, with Shiresden Moorways F.C. being established in 1934. Although popular, Moorways were based in the extreme north-east of Shiresden; Grashall Olympic were an attempt to redress the balance and represent the rest of the city. Playing out of a series of playing fields in and around the Grashall district of southern Shiresden, the team were accepted into the Western Alliance for the 1939 season, where they earned a respectable finish.

Following two successive fifth-placed finishes, Grashall Olympic were one of fifteen sides to apply for the five available spaces in the newly-formed National League, though they suffered the ignominy of being one of just two sides not to receive a single vote. After leaving the Western Alliance, they competed in the Peninsular League until the end of the 1951 season.
