| CLUB DETAILS |
North Shields Athletic was originally formed in 1896 and played initially in the South Shields and District League. They progress through the Northern Combination, Northern Alliance and North Eastern League and became a major force in North-East football, outside the Football League, moving to play at Hawkey's Lane around 1900.
North Shields AFC emerged in 1928 and the club won many honours over the years. They enjoyed tremendous local support with a record 12,800 watching the local derby with South Shields in 1936. In 1969 North Shields won the FA Amateur Cup by beating Sutton United at Wembley.
The development of North Shields FC's new ground at Ralph Gardner Park is progressing so that, in time, the people of the town will once again have a major club of which they can be proud.
