The club first entered the Ceredigion League in 1931–32, finishing fifth out of six teams.[3]
The club was reformed in the early 1960s.[4]
New Quay played in the 1978–79 Welsh Cup, where they lost in the preliminary round against Montgomery Town.[5]
The club's greatest period came in the early 2010s, with three consecutive Ceredigion League titles in 2010–11, 2011–12, and 2012–13. However just three years after their last title the club was on the brink of folding.[4]
