HISTORY:

From Northants League. Entered the new, regionalised, EBL4 in 2006.

After a moderate first season, put together a strong well-balanced team for 2007-8, but had the misfortune to find themselves in the same division as the immensely strong Derby II and Westminster teams. Still managed a good third-place finish, and a play-off place for the first time. That performance earned them promotion to Division 3 South.
