The first club in the area was Vyrnwy United, who entered into the 1885–86 and 1886–87 Welsh Cups, but failed to win a match both times.[2][3] They also played in the Wrexham Argus Jubilee Competition in 1887.[4][5]
The club was founded in 1949[6] and were regular members of the Montgomeryshire Football League from 1960 until they folded in 2009.
The club competed in the Welsh Cup from 1971–72 to 1974–75, never making it past the second round.[7][8][9][10]
They briefly reformed for the 2018–19 season, but had to groundshare at Llanrhaeadr's Tanllan ground and folded after one season.[11]
