They are currently members of the Sheffield & Hallamshire County Senior League Premier Division and play at Hough Lane.

Little is known of the formation of the club – they first came to prominence when entering the FA Cup in 1906.

They entered the Sheffield & Hallamshire County Senior League (S&HCSL) in 1996, and by 1998 they had won two successive promotions to reach the S&HCSL's Premier Division.

In their first Premier Division campaign they claimed the league championship – an achievement they would repeat on a further three occasions.

The Main suffered a turbulent time during the mid-2010s, culminating in relegation to Division One of the County Senior League, though promotion was gained at the first attempt.
