History

[edit]

After winning the second tier, they played in the top tier NSL in 1995, being relegated in their first season. They bounced back to play in the 1997–98 Premier Soccer League, where they were again relegated immediately. Returning straight away after winning the 1998–99 Coastal Stream,[1] they finished one position above the relegation zone in the 1999–2000 Premier Soccer League season before again being relegated, finishing bottom of the 2000–01 Premier Soccer League. They made a final appearance in the top tier in the 2002–03 Premier Soccer League before suffering a second consecutive relegation from the 2003–04 National First Division. They have since played in the amateur ranks.[2]
