After finishing fourth in the league in their first season, they won the Lincolnshire League the following season, and then finished as runners-up in both 1997–98 and 1998–99. [2]

In 2000 the club switched to the Humber Premier League, where they played for a single season before joining the Premier Division of the Central Midlands League. After finishing as runners-up in 2001–02, they were promoted to the Supreme Division. [2] The club went on to win the Supreme Division in 2005–06, and after finishing as runners-up the following season, were promoted to Division One of the Northern Counties East League. [2] The 2010–11 season saw Barton finish in second place, earning promotion to the Premier Division. [2]
