History

Founded in 1994, MSB Woolton trace their heritage back to the Woolton Boys Club youth team that formed in the 1930s. [3] They operated under the name Woolton Youth Centre FC and consisted of various loosely connected teams, before a restructuring in the early 2000s brought the club into a tigher organisation, under the name MSB Woolton. [1] They were awarded Charter Standard Community Club status by the FA in 2010, and developed the goal of taking the men's senior team to the North West Counties league to provide a pathway for their youth players. [3]

The senior team joined the Liverpool County Premier Second Division in 2014-15 simply as 'Woolton', [4] taking the name MSB Woolton in 2016 having won succesive promotions to reach the Premier Divison. [5] Attempts at further promotion were denied by the interruption of football during Covid-19 and then ground-grading issues. [1] However in 2025 they obtained the move up to the North-West Counties having won the Liverpool County Division for a second time. [5]
