They were formed in 1908. In 1926, they became the first English team to win three successive league titles - a feat which only three other clubs have been able to match. On 2 February 2005, the name of the club was changed from Huddersfield Town Association Football Club to Huddersfield Town Football Club.

Nicknamed The Terriers, their mascot is Terry the Terrier. The club traditionally plays in a blue and white vertically striped shirt with white shorts. Its main rivals are Leeds United and Bradford City.

The side plays its home games at the Galpharm Stadium. The ground was originally called The Alfred McAlpine Stadium after an agreement with the construction company which built it. The club has its own Academy and, at least in part due to financial difficulties, its present squad contains a number of academy products.

Their current manager is former Town player Peter Jackson and their current chairman is Ken Davy, who also holds the same position for Huddersfield rugby league club Huddersfield Giants. This dual role, and unclear financial arrangements between the clubs, is a source of discontent amongst some sections of the support.

Early days

Pre-World War II

In 1907 the Huddersfield Association Football Ground Co. was formed and, with capital of £500, set about purchasing the Leeds Road recreation fields. In the summer of 1908 Huddersfield Town AFC was launched and Leeds Road was officially opened in September 1908 with a friendly against Bradford Park Avenue.

Huddersfield entered the Football League in 1910 but in May 1912 the club went into liquidation. A new club was formed though in November 1919 a fund-raising campaign was needed to stave off a move to Leeds! Remarkably, the team went on to reach the 1920 Cup Final and win promotion to Division One.

Town subsequently won the First Division Championship for three consecutive years 1923-24, 1924-25, and 1925-26 under manager Herbert Chapman. They were the first club to achieve this success. After being losing finalists against Aston Villa, they won the FA Cup 1-0 against Preston North End on 29 April 1922 at Stamford Bridge. They also won the Charity Shield in 1922.

Notable early results were Huddersfield Town beating Manchester United 6-0 away on 10 September 1930, Blackpool 10-1 at home on 13 December 1930 and Liverpool 8-0 at home on 10 November 1934.

The record attendance was 67,037 in a 1-0 FA Cup 6th Round defeat against Arsenal on 27 February 1932.

Post-World War II

In 1952 top-flight Huddersfield Town approached Andy Beattie and asked him to become their manager on a reported salary of around £2,500.
