History

The club was founded in 1997 and started competing in Division three of the Hertford and District Football League, and winning it at the first attempt. [3] The club then had two more consecutive promotions, taking the Division one title en route to the Premier division. [3] The 2006–07 season saw the club join Division one the Hertfordshire Senior County League. [4] Their second season in the league saw the club finish runners up in Division one. [4]

Instead of joining the Premier division of the Herts senior league, the club applied to join Division two of the Spartan South Midlands League for the 2008–09 campaign and were successful. [3] The club played in Division two for two seasons before gaining promotion to Division one. [5] The 2011–12 campaign saw the club make their debut in the FA Cup, where they met Oxhey Jets F.C. in the extra preliminary round but lost 6–0. [6] The men's team withdrew from the league in October 2019 due to difficulties in raising enough players to form a team.
