The club dates back to the 1880s. They started out as a hockey team,[1] before switching to football in the 1900s.[2][3] They were a founder member of the Ceredigion League in 1921, and were then known as Drefach.[4] The club's name was officially changed from Bargoed Rangers to Bargod Rangers in January 1975, to reflect the correct spelling of the River Bargod, which runs through the village.[5][6]

In 1981–82, Bargod Rangers played a Welsh Cup second round match at home to Stourbridge, which Stourbridge won 5–0.[7] That was also their only season in the Mid Wales Football League, and they finished 8th of 14 teams.[8]
