History
Formed in 1922, R H Kermode, Arthur Craine, T Karran, A.E. Craine and A. Cormode were instrumental in getting the club started. The club was admitted to the Second League and continued to contest the Championship up to the Second World War. In 1928, only six years into their history, the club won the Southern Section of the 2nd League before defeating Michael United 4-0 in the decider for the Second League Title. At this stage, relegation and promotion had not been incorporated into Manx Football.
In the 1933/34 season, they missed out on the title after losing to Peel in a decider, but made amends the following season by clinching their 2nd title.
In 1937, Malew made their first appearance in the Junior Cup Final only to be beaten by Rushen United but the following season they won their third Second League title. This was a historic occasion as Malew were the last side to win this trophy before the introduction of relegation & promotion.
In the 2014/15 season, Malew's striker Andy Glover won the Isle of Man FA Silver Boot after bagging 42 goals in 18 games and subsequently awarded with the title of Isle of Man Division 2 Player of the Year 2014/15.
