The club went into decline following their success in the early years of the league, and in 2012 were demoted to NCL Division Three after failing to fulfill one of their fixtures. In 2015, the club withdrew from the National Conference League altogether due to a lack of playing strength. The club returned to the National Conference League in 2019.
