After an initial trial of the Snowtown footballers playing under the Blyth banner in 1988, the Blyth Snowtown Football Club was formed in 1989 with the amalgamation of Blyth Football Club and Snowtown Football Club, the colours were red & white (known as the Roosters). In 1993 the club changed the colours to blue and white hoops (known as the Cats) this was suggested by a club member and taken on board by the committee.
