Donington on Bain Rovers F.C. existed on a casual basis from at least 1922 until 1948. It played in the East Lincs Combination from the date of its foundation until the club folded in 2014. Home matches were played from the late 1980s until 2014 at Donington Park on Station Road, a pitch "they had created... from scratch without any cost to the council".[9][10][11][12]
