Founded in 2010, they currently play across the border in the East of Scotland Football League, having joined in 2016.

Prior to this, they were members of the North Northumberland League in England.[1][2]

During the clubs time in the North Northumberland League they were champions of Division Two in 2012-13 and runners-up of Division One in 2015–16.

They also enjoyed cup success winning the Robson and Runciman Cups during the 2012-13 treble winning season and the Anderson Cup in 2015–16, while their time in the East of Scotland Football League has often been one of struggle and currently play in the Second Division.

For the 2023–24 season the club will be ground sharing with Berwick Rangers and Berwick Bandits at Shielfield Park, which has a capacity of just over 4,000 with 1,366 seats.
