Helsby Football Club was founded in 1895 as Helsby Town, and local

records show a victorious Helsby side returning to Helsby rail station

after being victorious in the 1905 Liverpool County Cup final.

​

In 1998, the newly reformed Division 3 saw something of a golden age

for Helsby, as they won that year’s Division 3 title, with the West

Cheshire Shield and Runcorn Senior Cup joining the divisional title in

the trophy cabinet, as Helsby BICC secured a 1998-’99 seasonal treble.

If this were good, the following season would be even better; Helsby won every competition they entered. The Division 2 league and cup titles were lifted, along with the Bill Weight Memorial Trophy, a retained Runcorn Senior Cup, and the Cheshire Senior Cup success rounded off a stellar year. Even the Reserves got in on the act, winning the South Wirral Challenge Cup to ensure a packed trophy room.

​

At the close of that season, the club’s affiliation with the BICC company finally ended, with Helsby FC becoming the club’s name going forward. They secured a hat-trick of Runcorn Senior Cup titles at the end of the following year and won the Northern Counties Championship when representing the Cheshire FA.

​

Bring us up to the present day, and the club has gone from strength to strength, especially with the addition of our Mini Kickers, Juniors and Girls sections growing daily.

​

Our Helsby Mini Kickers are our 4-6-year-olds. They train each week at Helsby Community Sports Club. Our Junior teams are now comprised of under 7's, under 8's, under 9's, under 10's, and most recently, we have expanded to add a girl's section to the club. Training and games take place throughout the week, depending on the team your child plays for.
