History

In 2010–11 they joined the newly created Mid Wales Football League Division Two.[3] The following season they were crowned champions and promoted to Division One for the 2012–13 season.
In July 2020 the club was announced as one of the tier 4 clubs in the restructured West Division of the Mid Wales Football League.[4]
