Penybont FC is a Welsh football club from Bridgend.

The club was founded in 2013 from a merger of Bridgend Town FC and Bryntirion Athletic FC, at the time both teams played in the Welsh Football League Division One (tier 2 of Welsh football).

In 2018-19 they won the Welsh League and were promoted to the Cymru Premier. In 2022-23 they finished 3rd which qualified them for the UEFA Europa Conference League, but lost 3-1 in the first qualifying round against FC Santa Coloma.

In 2024-25 they were in the race for the league title. At the time of the league split they were only 1 point behind The New Saints FC, but after the split The New Saints won the title quite comfortably. Their 2nd place finish again qualified them for the UEFA Conference League, but it was again a first qualifying round exit, against FK Kauno Zalgiris.
