History
The team was formed in 2005 when a team called Woodley F.C. was renamed Northwich Villa when links were made with Northwich Victoria for the team to act as a feeder team.[2][3][4]
The club entered the Cheshire Football League Division Two in 2005–06 and finished as runners up in the inaugural season.[5] Consequently the team was promoted to Division One, which the team won in 2008–09.[6] The team was runner-up the following year.[7]
The team finished 9th in the 2010–11 season and had a successful application to join the North West Counties Football League Division One.[8][9]
After two seasons in the North West Counties League and a relocation to Flixton, the club adpoted its present name in 2013.[10]
The club finished the 2013–14 season in one of the two relegation places, but was not relegated due to a surplus of spaces at level 10.
