The club was originally formed in the season of 1978/79 entering the Sunday League in Division 6.
The original team was made up predominantly of players from Winteringham Intermediates who had been running for a number of years under the guidance of local enthusiasts Dennis Jewson, Fred Naylor and Arthur Ogg.
Winteringham have seen many other teams come and go in previous years and it is a credit to all concerned (past and present) that a small village should be able to support a Sunday League team for over two decades.
Many a Sunday league player will recall the happy memories of getting in a railway carriage before playing a match under the watchful gaze of the local herd of cows.
The current team is managed by Tony Simons, who has been involved with the club for more than 25 years, graduating from player to player/manager, then to manager. He was a member of the team that brought the only previous trophy to the Club when clinching the Division 5 Championship in the 1981/82 season.
The current Reserve Team Manager is Ian Brown.
Club Coach is Wally Grice.
The Club is extremely grateful to all sponsors past and present, without whom the Club wouldn't be here today. As you can appreciate, the Club has ongoing expenditures to facilitate its existence (pitch hire, changing rooms, insurance, grass cutting etc).
Our current sponsors are as follows:
Richtoy Motor Sports Overhall Contractors Ltd
We are always looking for new sponsorship to help develop the club, as we aspire to greater success.

We have League tables for one season in the fifties, and for the second half of the 1960s (Winteringham doesn’t appear to have had a football club in the very early 1960s).
