St Clears A.F.C. are a Welsh football club from the town of St Clears, Carmarthenshire in the southwest of Wales. They currently play in the Pembrokeshire League Division Three.[2][3]
The present club was reformed in 1965 and entered the Pembrokeshire League. They won the third division championship in their first season[4] before winning the second division in their second season. They followed this up with a third back-to-back championship in 1967–68 becoming Division One champions for the first, and only time to date.
The club's current badge depicts a boar. It was created by Dan Squire in 2015 to mark the club's 50th anniversary. In 2020 the badge won a "World Cup of Crests" on Twitter, which included over 400 non-league football clubs from around the world. They defeated Leicestershire-based Wirksworth Ivanhoe in the final.[5]
