After finishing bottom of the league's Premier Division in 2002–03, they were relegated to Division One. However, a third-place finish in Division One the following season saw them promoted back to the Premier Division. The club were relegated to Division One again at the end of the 2006–07 season.
Despite finishing bottom of Division One in 2007–08, West Essex were not relegated, and went on to win the Division One title the following season, earning promotion back to the Premier Division. In 2010 the club switched to Division One Central & East of the Middlesex County League.[2] They won the division in their first season in the league and were promoted to the Premier Division. They won the Premier Division Cup in 2013–14,[1] and were Premier Division champions in 2015–16 and successfully applied to move up to the Essex Senior League.
