The actual date of the football club was formed is not known with any degree of certainty, but it is probably safe to assume that with the opening of the Welfare park in 1925, a team was in existence at that time and took the name of Tonyrefail Welfare AFC
The early days were spent in the local leagues, where much success was achieved in the league and cup competitions.
After World War 2 the team joined the South Wales Amateur League and success continued by winning the league title in 1951 and the corinthian cup in 1950 and 1952 and also notably winning the Brecon corinthian cup in three successive years 1949-1951.
Joining the Welsh league in season 1952-1953, the club continued as members for 46 seasons until they were relegated in 1998-1999.
Most of the clubs success came in the 1950's and 1960's, when they played in the premier division of the Welsh league and had a number of appearances in cup finals.
Cup final appearances were made in the South Wales senior cup in 1954, 1967 and 1969, and the Welsh amateur cup in 1969, finishing in all finals as runners up.
