Greenwood Meadows Football Club is a football club based in Nottingham, England. The club are currently members of the East Midlands Counties League and play at Lenton Lane.
The club was established in 1987 following the amalgamation of Greenwood (founded 1956) and Meadows Albion. Both clubs were members of the Notts Alliance, with Meadows Albion in the Senior Division and Greenwood in Division One. The new club took Greenwood's place in Division One. After finishing as Division One runners-up in 1989–90, the club were promoted to the Senior Division. Despite finishing second-from-bottom in 1994–95, the club avoided relegation to Division One, and after a fifth-place finish in 1996–97, they moved up to the Premier Division of the Central Midlands League.
In 2000–01 Greenwood Meadows were Premier Division runners-up, earning promotion to the Supreme Division. In 2008 they became founder members of the East Midlands Counties League. After three mid-table finishes, the club began to struggle and finished bottom of the league in 2014–15 and 2015–16.
