The club was formed in 1931, playing in local leagues. They joined
the Yorkshire League in 1946/47 but stayed only 4 seasons before playing
many years in the Doncaster Senior League. After this they joined the
Sheffield County Senior League and these were the most productive years
in terms of trophies won.
They become the first club to win both the Wharncliffe Charity Cup
and County Senior League Championship in 1975/76. In 1977, the Yorkshire
League accepted the club back in to it's membership.
Harworth have for many years been members of the Central Midlands Football
League, struggling the past few years and relegated to the Premier Division,
but now they have stabilised the ship and brighter times look to be
ahead.
