Club history

The association was founded in 1960 in Yeading, a borough of the London Borough of Hillingdon . From its inception, the club played for many years in the London Spartan League, a very low-class amateur league. In the 1986/87 season, FC Yeading was promoted to the second division of the Isthmian League for the first time . The 1989/90 season was one of the club's most successful. Yeading finished the championship of the second division of the Isthmian League in first place, which the team rose to the first division. The team also won the FA Vase . After two more years, he was promoted to the Isthmian League Premier Division . The club managed to stay up for six years in a row, but this did not succeed in the 1997/98 season and Yeading fell back to the first division of the Isthmian League. The team then played six years in the league before being promoted back to the Isthmian League Premier Division in the 2003/04 season.

Yeading succeeded in the second ascent in a row, with winning the league, the club made it to the Conference South for the first time in 2005 . In the same season, Yeading reached the third round of the FA Cup after victories over Halesowen Town and Slough Town . The home game in front of 10824 spectators was lost 2-0 to Premier League representatives Newcastle United . In the following two seasons, FC Yeading managed to stay in the Conference South. On May 18, 2007 FC Yeading announced that the club would merge with FC Hayes . The new club Hayes & Yeading United took over the places of Yeading and Hayes in the Conference South.
