The club was established in 1975 as a youth team under the name Harborough Town Juniors,[1] with the modern club formed by a merger with adult team Spencer United in 2008.[2] Spencer United joined Division Five of the Leicester & District Mutual League in 1976.[3] They were Division Five champions in 1977–78 and were promoted to Division Two.[3] A third-place finish the following season saw them promoted to Division One. Although the club were relegated back to Division Two three seasons later, they were Division Two runners-up in 1987–88 and promoted to the Premier Division.[3] In 1996 they joined Division One of the Northamptonshire Combination.[3]

In 2002 the club were renamed Harborough Spencer United.[3] They were relegated back to Division One after finishing bottom of the Premier Division in 2004–05, and were subsequently renamed Harborough Town Spencers in 2006.[3] During the 2007–08 season, the club were amalgamated into Harborough Town, adopting their name. They ended the season as Division One runners-up, earning promotion to the Premier Division.[5]
