[edit] History

Great Wyrley joined the West Midlands Regional League from 1980 and won three divisional titles. In 2005 they gained promotion to the Premier Division for the first time and finished third in their first season in the top division, but financial problems at the start of the subsequent season led them to start the season late, fail to fulfill a number of fixtures, and ultimately withdraw from the league in October 2006. It remains to be seen if they will join another league or fold altogether.

They have won the local JW Hunt Cup twice and the Staffordshire Challenge Vase on three occasions.
