Eriswell is home of the re-formed Eriswell Village Football Club who play in the heart of the village on the public playing field. nicknamed 'The Stags' or 'The Well' Eriswell Village FC currently plays in the 4th Division of the Plastic Trade Frames Bury and District Sunday League. Eriswell's primary sponsor is The EUROGROUP International Movers who helped provide new kit for the 16/17 season.
