Club History


The club has been run in it’s current guise since 2005, when it consisted of one open age team – who won the NRWL Cup.

In 2006 the under 16′s team formed, entering the ERGL, in their first season the were runners up in the ERGL cup.

In 2007 the under-14s and the the Reserves were formed, both teams representing Scarborough in the East Riding Leagues. In the Reserves debut season they where runners up in the ERWL Cup and the Development Shield.

In 2007 Kerry Hammond who had played for the under-16s, was selected for the York Centre of Excellence, and later played for Leeds Carnegie Ladies in 2009.

2008 saw the under-12s join the club again representing Scarborough in the East Riding Girls League and finished as runners up in the league cup. Part way through the 2008 season the under 10s were formed and won the Scarborough & District Minor League Cup.

It was a successful year for the open-age set-up also, as the first team won the North Riding Women’s League and Cup double, earning promotion to the North East Regional Women’s League. The Reserves also finished as runners-up in the East Riding League cup final.

And capping off a fine season for the club, the under-14s went unbeaten to win the ERGL title, scoring a massive 160 goals in 22 league matches – including 67 for Kelly Clarkson who joined Middlesbrough the following season alongside Kayleigh Ryall.

The under-11s joined the City of York Girls League for the 2009-10 season, and won their league comfortably. The under-12s represented the club in the league plate final but lost out to a strong Tickton team.

In 2009 the Soccer-ettes were set up – adding to the development of the club, and the Reserves moved up into the North Riding League, taking the first team’s place vacated after promotion. At the end of the 2009-10 season Chelsea Calvert and Lucy Brown joined the York CoE from the club's under-14 side.

Season 2010-11 saw wholesale changes at the club as the Reserves team was disbanded, and new managers came in to the junior set-up.

The under-13s section was split into two teams, Blues and Reds. The Reds won the COYGFL title, losing just one game, and were cup finalists – losing narrowly by one goal to York in the final. The under-16s lost just one game all season to take the league and cup double.

The 2011-12 saw the club start an under-10s, who fared very well in their first season, finishing as runners-up in the COYGFL. From this side, captain Eboney Stewart and Olivia Smith were selected for the York Centre of Excellence for the 2012-13 season. The under-13s were also successful, finished as cup runners-up and third in the league winning 13 of 18 matches. The under-12s, 14s and 16s also each finished a respectable third in their leagues.

In 2012-13 the club fielded six teams to start the season, although the under-16s set-up was shelved half-way through the season, and the open-age managed just a few games being dropping out - both due to lack of players. However the younger age groups remained strong, and three of the four sides took silverwear. The under-10s won their league, remaining unbeaten through the league campaign. The under-14s defied the odds to win the league cup, despite being one player short for the final. And the under-15s didn't lose a game all season, finishing as champions and cup runners-up - losing only on penalties in the final.

At the end of the season Ella Davis was selected for the York CoE.

For the new 13-14 season, the club began two new sides at u12 and u13 levels. The u13 side was instantly successful, winning the league cup. All other sides finished mid-table or higher.

The club continued to grow off the field as well, and in February was awarded FA Charter Standard Development Club status. This recognition was awarded further in May when the club was nominated as the NRCFA's choice as their FA Charter Standard Development Club of the Year 2014 in the FA Community Awards.

For the 2014-15 season the club integrated an new u10 development league side into the club, as well as starting an u18 side to progress the u16s further prior to adult football.

At Easter in 2015 the under-13s and under-14s squad visited Paris for an international tournament at Disneyland, and the under-14 side won the plate competition to bring home the club's first ever international trophy. At the end of the season the club celebrated it's year with a presentation night in the packed Spa Ocean Room, with almost 300 people in attendance.

In the summer of 2015 Olivia Shehi, a graduate of our under-12s team of 2014-15, and Lara Peasegood from the Under-10s moved on to the York CoE.

For the 2015-16 season the club grew again, adding a new under-12s side to the junior ranks, as well as beginning an Open Age squad in the North Riding Women's League for the first time in three seasons.

In addition, the club registered almost 120 players as club members at the start of the season, across six competitive and two development squads.
