| CLUB DETAILS |
Percy Main Amateurs were formed in the 1919-1920 season to play in the Northern Amateur League and finished their first season as league champions. The club also won the Championship on 4 consecutive seasons between 1925-1928.
Between 1931 and the War years the club played in the Tyneside Senior League before rejoining the Northern Amateur League, competing with teams such as Heaton Stannington, Seghill and Bohemians.
The club subsequently joined the Northern Alliance and enjoyed Northumberland Amateur Cup success in 1968,1970 and 1971, while the following season the Northern Alliance League Challenge Cup was brought to Purvis Park on it's one and only occassion to date.
In 1978 The Villagers won the Northumberland Senior Bowl with a 1-0 win over West Allotment at North Shields Appleby Park ground.
The Northern Alliance League Championship was won in consecutive seasons 1981 and 1982 while the club finished runners up in 1983. Percy Main were relegated to Division 1 in 1992, but were promoted as champions in 1998-99 and the club went on to lift the League Cup in their first season back in the top flight.
In 2004 The Villagers won the Northumberland Bowl for only the second time, defeating Cramlington Town at Whitley Park 2-0.
In 2003 the club with vital cash aid from the Football Foundation renewed the perimeter fence around Purvis Park and a plaque in the clubhouse commemorates the service given by treasurer Gary Hull, tragically killed in a road acccident during the same year.
Percy Main's Village Ground was renamed Purvis Park in 1996 in recognition of 50 years dedicated service by the late Alan Purvis as player, secretary and chairman.
