History

The club started life in the Clwyd Football League Division Two in the 2005–06 season, formed by Barry Ainsworth, who had previously run a youth section in the village in the 1990s. [1] Ainsworth managed the club for six years after the club's formation, overseeing promotion as Clwyd Division One champions in 2007–08 with a perfect record of 24 straight wins [1] and into the Welsh Alliance League in 2011–12. The club's next management team, Scott Beck and Tony Hogan, guided the club to the Welsh Alliance Division Two championship in 2015–16. [1]

The club joined the newly formed North East Wales Football League in 2020 as a Premier Division club [2] and after the first planned season was cancelled due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the club were inaugural champions in the 2021–22 season. [3]
