BRIEF CLUB HISTORY

Founded in 1943 as Brymbo Steelworks, the club won the Welsh National League (Wrexham Area) Premier Division title 12 times, North East Wales FA Challenge Cup on five occasions and the Welsh Amateur Cup in 1967 before joining the Cymru Alliance League as Brymbo FC in 1991-92.

Mergers with New Broughton (1996-2005) and Summerhill United (2005-06) followed before the club reverted to the name Brymbo FC in 2006-07.

The Steelmen lifted the Welsh National League (Wrexham Area) Premier Division title twice more in 2006-07 and 2007-08, also landing the FAW Trophy in the former season.

They remained in the Premier before being relegated in 2016-17. but came straight back up as Division One champions in 2017-18.

Two more seasons in the WNL Premier saw Brymbo finish third and sixth, then after 2020-21 was wiped out by Covid-19, the Wrexham area club took their place in the new Tier 3 Ardal North West league.

Unfortunately, they were relegated and dropped into the North East Wales League Premier, where they finished bottom in 2022-23 without a single win.

They have been steadily rebuilding for the past two seasons in the Championship.
