History

In 2017, Yarm & Eaglescliffe were formed as a response to the lack of senior football clubs in the area, joining the newly formed North Riding League. In the club's first season, they finished ninth in the Premier Division. In Yarm & Eaglescliffe's second season, the club won the North Riding Saturday County Cup. [2] In 2023, the club was admitted into the Northern League Division Two. [3]

On 29 April 2026, the club won their first North Riding Senior Cup at the Riverside Stadium in Middlesbrough. The game finished goalless in regulation time. Yarm & Eaglescliffe won the resulting penalty shoot-out 4–1 in front of 1,617 supporters from both clubs. [4]

Ground

Yarm & Eaglescliffe initially played at Conyers' School in Yarm. In 2022, the club began a groundsharing agreement with Billingham Town to play at Bedford Terrace. [2]
