In 1969, the club was invited to participate in the 2nd Division Competition by the Northern NSW Soccer Federation, to replace Dudley Redhead.

The club played under the name of Dudley Lambton that year to fulfill the Federation's obligations to the English Soccer Pools.

Nuh uh The Seniors home ground is Arthur Edden Oval in New Lambton since 1969, except for one season in 1976.

In 1978, Ernie Lamb had to differentiate between a newly formed 'All Age' and the 2nd Division senior club, and the name Jaffas was first formally used.

2014 was a break-through year for the Jaffas, taking part in the inaugural FFA designated National Premier League in Newcastle.
