| In the 89/90 season in the renamed South East Counties League the Club were runners up in the Premier Div & finalists in the League Cup, the Premier Div Cup & the Reserve Team Cup, so becoming TOP CLUB IN SUSSEX. |
| In the 90/91 season we WON the League Cup, were runners up in the Premier Div again, and again reached the last 16 in the WFA Cup, so retaining our position as TOP CLUB IN SUSSEX. The Reserves reached the Final of the Reserve Team Cup for the 3rd year in succession, won the Sportsmanship award and were elected to the top Div (Div 1) of the SEC League, the only Reserve Team to be in the Top Division. We also launched a 3rd team, so becoming the only club to have 3 teams competing in the League. |
| In the 91/92 season we were founder members of the National Women's Football League, playing in Div 1 South and finishing a very creditable 3rd, and also reached the quarter finals of the WFA Cup for the 1st time, once again being TOP CLUB IN SUSSEX. The Reserves played in the top Div of the SEC League and reached the Div 1 Cup Final . |
| The 92/93 season saw the Club change its name from ‘HASSOCKS BEACON LFC ‘ to ‘HASSOCKS LFC'. The 1st team gained the 'Runners-up' spot in Div 1 South of the National League, way ahead of the other Sussex teams, achieving the ‘double' over both Brighton and Saltdean so once again we were TOP CLUB IN SUSSEX. The Reserves , the only Reserve in the top Div of the SEC League finishing a very creditable 6th. |
| Following this successful run the 93/94 season saw a very sharp decline in the Clubs fortunes, the 1st team finishing bottom of the National League, the Reserves bottom of Div 1 of the SEC League and the 3rds similarly placed. |
| For the 94/95 season we re-organised, using our resources to run 2 teams only, and saw the start of a recovery, the 1st team finishing strongly to finish 6th in Div 1 of the SEC League and the Reserves showing promise for the future. |
| The 95/96 season did not see the hoped for improvement in form, but the 1st team did win the Div 1 sportsmanship trophy. |
| At the start of the 96/97 season our Team Manager in our 'glory years', John Pratt, rejoined as 1st Team Manager & Club coach, and a very noticeable change in playing fortunes came about. |
| The 97/98 season saw both teams in the South East Counties WFL do very well, the 1st team achieving its objective in qualifying for the new Combination Div of the FA (coming 3rd in the Premier Div), and the Reserves reached the Reserve Team Cup Final. We also for the 1st time joined the Sussex Girls League (which plays 7 a side matches) and entered a team at U12 level. |
| The 98/99 season the 1st team found the transition to the FA Combination League very difficult and finished bottom. The Reserve Team, with many new players, saw an improvement in playing standards over the season whilst in the Sussex Girls League (7 a side) the U13 have enjoyed their football and the U15 team reached the Cup Final. |
| For the 1999/2000 season the Club changed its name to reflect the co-operation with Haywards Heath Town F.C, both senior teams being in the South East Counties WFL, the 1sts in the Premier Div and the Reserves in Div 3 (South) and our U13 team now the U14 team with the U15's joining the senior squads. We WON the Chairmans Cup. |
| The 2000/2001 season saw us return to running 3 teams in the SECWFL, the 1st team narrowly missed promotion to the Premier Div, the 2nds won the Div3(N) Sportsmanship award whilst the 3rds reached the Reserve Team Cup Final |
|
The 2001/2002 season saw us continuing to run 3 teams in the SECWFL, but with the reduction of the number of Teams, and therefore Divisions in the League, to comply with FA Requirements our 3rd Team was called Haywards Heath United. We are again the only "Club" with 3 teams in the League. OUR UNITED TEAM GAINED PROMOTION TO DIV 2, OUR 1sts REACHED THE CHAIRMANS CUP FINAL AND JUST MISSED PROMOTION TO THE PREMIER DIV, COMING 3rd IN DIV 1, ONE POSITION BETTER THAN LAST SEASON |
|
The 2002/2003 season saw us return to running 3 teams as one Club in the SECWFL, the 1st team being in Div 1, the 2nds in Div 2 and the 3rds in Div 3. The 1sts WON the Chairmans Cup, the 2nds reached the final of the Reserve Team Cup and received the Leagues "Div 2 Sportsmanship Award" whilst 3rd team Keeper Claire Imray received the Leagues "Div 3 Player of the Year Award".
Both the 1sts and 2nds have gained promotion after finishing 3rd in their respective Divisions. The 1sts are therefore back in the PREMIER DIV after 3 seasons in Div 1. |
| The 2003/2004 season saw our 2nd Team the promoted 1st team retain Premier Div status and also reach the FINAL of the Sussex County FA Challenge Cup for the 1st time . The 2nds, having been promoted for the 2nd season running did very well in Div 1 finishing 4th, ahead of the other two promoted teams whilst the 3rds finished strongly in Div 3(s). |
| The 2004/2005 season saw our 2nd Team receiving the "Div 2 Sportsmanship Award" whilst the 3rds reached the FINAL of the SCFA Challenge Trophy |
| The 2006/2007 season saw our 1st Team receiving the "Div 1[W] Sportsmanship Award" |
