Richmond 'A'
Formed in 1921 as Labour Club becoming Labour 'A' in 1924 when Labour 'B' were formed and are the longest surviving team in the League. They changed their name to Richmond 'A' when the Labour Club became the Richmond Place Club. They were relegated from Division 1 to Division 6 in 1970 presumably becasue they failed to enter for the new season on time. They then proceeded to win promotion each season and return to Division 1 for season 1975/76 by winning each Division on the way.
