Formed in 2010 following the demise of Farsley Celtic, the reborn club initially had to take on the name of Farsley AFC when they took their place in the Northern Counties East League Premier Division.
Progress has been steady since then and in 2015/16 the club will be once again competing in the Northern Premier League Division One North.
More importantly they will once again be known as Farsley Celtic FC as five years have elapsed since the original club folded and FA rules prevent the name during this period being the same as the club that went into administration.
To mark that decision, the first competitive home game of the season at Throstle Nest, against Kendal Town on Saturday 15 August at 3pm, will be free entry to all supporters with the match itself preceeded by a number of other activities.
As the club website itself says: 'The celebration day marks the return of the Celtic name after a five year absence and gives chance for the local community, as well as those further afield, to come and enjoy our wonderful club.'
