Founded in 2012, the club was awarded a licence to compete in the National Premier Leagues Queensland in the 2018 season, with matches played from Barlow Park.

The club reached the 2016 NPL Queensland Grand Final [1] but relinquished their licence at the end of the 2018 due to financial issues.

These players were to feed into the Far North Queensland Bulls FC which was formed in 2009 and based at Borzi Park in Mareeba and played in the defunct QSL.

In the 2010 QSL season, the club finished a very creditable 3rd in the league, behind competition heavyweights, the Sunshine Coast FC and Brisbane Strikers, but were knocked out in the first semi final by arch rivals the Townsville-based NQ Razorbacks.

In 2012 the FFA introduced and formed the National Premiers Leagues throughout Australia as a second tier level to under pin the A-League and applications were invited to nominate for the new competition.
