History

The club was founded in 1968 as Harlem Kickers FC,[3] changed to The Great West Football Club in 1972 until it was renamed Waterhouse in 1979[4] and started with their home ground at Emmett Park. Their home ground has since been moved into the community, The Waterhouse Stadium, which can hold a capacity of up to 5,000.

They won the league title in 2005–06,[5] which was said to be dedicated to the late Peter Cargill, their coach who died in a car crash.
