Formed in 1908, Huddersfield Town has one of the proudest histories of any club in English football. Recognised as one of the most successful English clubs of all time, we were the first club to win the English League title three times in a row in 1924, 1925 and 1926. This is a feat that has only been repeated by three other teams – Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool.
The Club embarked upon a ‘New Era’ when Dean Hoyle became Chairman in 2009. Popularly known as the Yorkshire Club, we have formed innovative partnerships with reputed organisations in the business world.
During the ‘New Era’, Huddersfield Town has been nominated for an impressive fifteen accolades at the Football League Awards, scooping the titles of ‘Family Club of the Year’ (three times in the last four years) and ‘Best Matchday Programme’ as well as being highly commended in the Marketing and Community categories. We can proudly say that we are the most celebrated football club at the Football League Awards.
A 10 point pledge has been outlined by the Board of Directors which underpins the Club’s values. Those pledges are: honesty, integrity, trust, commitment, quality, pride, respect, character, value and success. Simply, our history serves as an inspiration for our future as we build a Club that our supporters can be proud of.
