In July 1981 the Sussex County FA purchased Lancing F.C., to which it moved its operations, effectively making Lancing F.C.'s home of Culver Road the headquarters of the Sussex County FA. On 2 November 1999 the Sussex County FA became incorporated as a private limited company. At this time, a new Board of Directors was created, with a second tier of volunteers called ‘the Council’, which was replaced in 2017 with ‘County Members’ and a series of Working Committees, designed to run football matters more effectively and inclusively.
