The club is credited with starting football in Morwell and playing a key role in the formation of the Latrobe Valley Soccer League - which it won in 1954, 1955 and 1957 - before its dissolution at the end of the 1957 season.
Despite early efforts to bring the game to the Latrobe Valley, largely spearheaded by local pastor Norman Minor, the only confirmed team to have been in the region was that belonging to Yallourn SC, who commenced playing in 1923.

[16] The influence of such highly-talented players had an instant impact as Morwell claimed the LVSL championships in 1954, 1955 and 1957, as well as Advertisier Shield triumphs in 1955 (6-1 v Red Triangle Yallourn) and 1957 (3-2 v Newborough).
[17] At the end of 1957, the Dutch diaspora decided to form Werkspoor, which entered into the LVSL Reserves in 1958 and then ultimately evolved into Fortuna '60 in 1960 - meaning Morwell's championship-winning 1957 season was its last in existence.
