South Kilburn F.C. joined the Middlesex County Football League in season 2005-06. The inaugural season was a learning curve for the newly formed team, the end of season position was a lowly third from bottom place in Division One. But it was a season that provided a sound base for the club to develop from and set the stage for progression.

In 2006-07 the club finished champions of Division One, losing only four games in the season and winning the division by two points. In cup fixtures South Kilburn also had reasonable success losing out 3-2 in the semi-final of the Jim Rogers President’s Division One Cup. The club also progressed to round four of the League Cup, and round three in the County FA Junior Cup.

The league success brought the reward of promotion to the Premier Division. Further achievements were made in what proved to be a great season for the club, losing 2-1 in the final of the London Junior Cup and reaching the semi-final of the Alec Smith Premier Division Cup. In league competition South Kilburn achieved the runners-up position in the Premier Division, and with that came the opportunity to join the Hellenic League. The club started its tenure in the Hellenic League brightly but in 2011 made the switch to the neighbouring Combined Counties League Division One and hopes to be able to make steady progress within the new sphere of competition.
