The journey has been a long and eventful one since our formation at a meeting held at the Queens Hotel, Lincoln, on Saturday 17 September 1881.

Just a small number of clubs joined back then with the promise of control, organisation, planning and increased participation, but today we have over 1000 clubs under our banner, stretching across one of the largest geographical counties in the country. However, those original promises are still key to our operations today.

There have been many changes over the years and the Association's change to become a Limited Company was the most significant.

Football administration has also changed dramatically during the past few years and our Association has been at the forefront of that change.

With our motto 'Teamwork at all times' we hope that the next few decades ahead allow us to use the power of football to build a better future and to lead the successful development of the sport at every level.
