West Ham United were founded in 1895 as Thames Ironworks FC by the workers of a shipbuilding firm in Canning Town, east London. The club kept the hammer-themed crest when it became West Ham United in 1900 and has remained the heart of football in the East End for over a century.
The club's defining moment in modern football came in summer 1966, when three West Ham players — Bobby Moore (captain), Geoff Hurst (scorer of the only hat-trick in a World Cup final), and Martin Peters — were central to England's only World Cup triumph. The "West Ham won the World Cup" chant has stuck for half a century since.
West Ham moved from Upton Park to the London Stadium in 2016, gaining 62,500 capacity but also significant local controversy. The 2023 UEFA Europa Conference League win in Prague under David Moyes was the club's first major trophy in 43 years.
