Monkton Swifts are a Welsh football club from Monkton, Pembroke, Pembrokeshire in the southwest of Wales. They spent six seasons in the Welsh Football League from 1994–95 to 1999–2000. The club currently play in the Pembrokeshire League Division One.[1] They have been champions of this league on five occasions, the last of which was in 2018–19.[2]
A pre World War Two team existed called Monkton United, records of which exist with the team playing in 1926. On 5 December 1955, a meeting was held in Monkton Church Hall with the aim to form a new football club which it was hoped would be entered in the Pembrokeshire League for the 1956–57 season.[3]
