The club was founded in 1864, under the patronage of the Herdman family, the local mill owners. It has won the North West Senior League on 28 occasions and the Cup 29 times. The club is remembered internationally as the host of the famous victory by Ireland against the West Indies in 1969. In 1947, Sion Mills entered the NCU Challenge Cup and won it at the first attempt, also doing the North West "double" of league and cup in the same season. Sion reached eleven North West cup finals between 1945 and 1962, and lost only one, also winning six league titles during the same period. During the 1940s, it was arguably the strongest club in Ireland. In September 2019, the future of the club was put in doubt, following an arson attack. (en)
