Ossett Albion were formed by a group of school friends as a junior club in 1944 and the first ever fixture was played on September 16th 1944.

Several grounds were used prior to the move to their current home at Queens Terrace in the mid-fifties. One year later they successfully applied for membership of the Yorkshire League.

Promotion to Division 1 of the Yorkshire League was achieved in 1959 and Albion remained in the top flight for 13 seasons. In the mid-sixties Albion won the West Riding County Cup three times in four years and a decade later they won the Yorkshire League Division 1 championship and the Yorkshire League Cup twice in successive seasons.

Five seasons were spent in Division 1 of the NCEL during which time ground development at Queens Terrace was given the highest priority. Carefully planned and costed improvements elevated the ground's grading from a lowly 'E' to the coveted grade 'A'. Albion's long-held ambitions of Premier Division status were finally realised in 1987 when they won the NCEL Division 1 championship.

The 1st team are in the Unibond Division 1 North. The reserves play in the Lancashire League East Division.
