Scissett Football Club are a football club based in the Scissett area of Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England. Currently the club's first team play in the Huddersfield and District Association Football League Division Two for the 2010-11 season. The club was founded in 1902 which makes them older than local football league club Huddersfield Town . The Club is home to three senior teams and numerous junior teams of both genders. They share Nortonthorpe Sports Club with Nortonthorpe Cricket Club where they have played since their first game in 1902. Nortonthorpe Sports Club Nortonthorpe sports club was donated by the Norton family who owned the local mills at the time. When George Norton left the family home (Bagden Hall) to live in Nortonthorpe Hall he chose to outline a deed of trust, which specified that the seven and a half acres of land, which currently form the cricket and football pitch, could only be used for the recreational purposes of the community. This is largely the reason behind the cricket club being called Nortonthorpe instead of Scissett See Also
