Foundation and early football

Liversedge were formed in 1910 following the closure of a local rugby club and began competing in the Bradford League. They won that competition in 1920/21 and later became founder members of the West Riding County Amateur League. This early period established the club within the network of community football that has long characterised West Yorkshire.

Progress through regional leagues

The club moved into the Yorkshire League in 1972/73 and continued to compete across the regional game. In more recent decades, promotion through the Northern Counties East League and into the Northern Premier League system has brought Sedge into a wider regional spotlight.
