History

edit

In 2018, Wilmslow reached the national levels of the sport for the first time by achieving promotion through winning the 2017-18 North 1 East/North 1 West promotion play-off.[1] Nonetheless, this transition proved to be challenging. The club concluded at the bottom of the North Premier league[2] and subsequently faced immediate relegation back into North 1 West.
