Carmarthen Town Association Football Club (Welsh: Clwb Pêl-droed Tref Caerfyrddin) is a Welsh semi-professional football club based in Carmarthen. The team play their home games at Richmond Park. The club colours, reflected in their crest and kit, are gold and black.
Carmarthen Town was established in 1950, entering its first team into the Carmarthenshire League and a second team into the Carmarthen & District League. The club was elected into the Welsh Football League in 1953. Their first league honour came in 1959–60, with promotion from Division 2 West to the First Division of the Welsh League. Carmarthen Town's first trophy was the Welsh Football League Cup, which they won in the 1995–96 season. Since then the club have gone on to win the Welsh Cup once and the Welsh League Cup three times. They have also qualified for UEFA competitions on four occasions.
Carmarthen Town currently play in Cymru South and have never won a top-flight league title, despite having been in the top tier of Welsh football for 24 years until their relegation in the 2019–2020 season. The club had their highest finish in 2000–2001, with third place, which qualified them for European competition for the first time.
