History

Formed in 1891, Arlesey Town started off competing in the Biggleswade & District League. In the 1920s, the club joined the Bedfordshire County League, which then became the South Midlands Football League. Arlesey's first trophy was the 1951-52 South Midlands League Championship, which they retained the following season. In 1982-83 the club moved to the United Counties Football League, winning the Premier Division in 1984-85. Rising costs forced Arlesey to resign from the United Counties Football League, moving back to the South Midlands League in 1991-92. 1994-95 saw the club win the league with a record 107 points, and then better this achievment by beating Oxford City in the final of the FA Vase at Wembley Stadium. The Blues' fifth South Midlands League championship followed in 1999-2000, and Arlesey were promoted (thanks to passing a ground inspection) to the Isthmian League Division Three. Their first season in this new division was very impressive with the club losing just two matches in the process of winning the 2000-01 league, scoring an Isthmian League record of 138 goals with a record 100+ goal difference. 2006-07 sees Arlesey Town start in the resurrected Isthmian League Division One North.
