Following World War I they joined the South East Northants League, but returned to the North Bucks League in the 1930s, winning its second division in 1932–33. In 1954 they rejoined the South East Northants League, which had by then been renamed the Rushden & District League, but moved back to the North Bucks League again by the early 1960s.
