During the time in the League, the team won  the Premier Division for three years on the trot. We also won the Derbyshire cup, the Gosling cup and the Petite Cup.

From 1996 until 2000 Gamesley played in the Manchester League Division One. During our time in this league we were  runners up in the first division once and we won the Murray Trophy twice
