History
FC Ridings was formed in 1988 as a result of a break away from Hull Amateur League side Kelvin Hall FC. Having run a very promising 3rd team of young players for Kelvin in 1987/88, Malcolm Reeves decided to 'break away' to form his own team, with the young players providing the impetus for this. The clubs first real success came in the 1996/97 season when 'Ridings won the League Junior Cup. On April 30th 2013 FC Ridings claimed their first ever league title, only losing one game, A late Barrie Duffill winner sealed a 2-1 victory over a tenacious Newland Young Boys side making it mathmatically impossible for Hutton Cranswick SRA to challenge for honours in the remaining game of the season. During 2006 the club played in the East Riding Premier League .
