Conference History

http://www.footballconference.co.uk/history.php

The Football Conference was formed in 1979 from leading teams in the Northern Premier League and Southern League and was originally known as the Alliance Premier League.
The Football Conference had a single division for the first 25 years of its existence, but since the 2004-05 season has consisted of three divisions. The original division was renamed Conference National and two new regional divisions one level down were introduced, Conference North and Conference South. The new clubs were drawn from the Northern Premier League, Southern League, and Isthmian League according to guidelines developed by the NLS Committee.
Since the start of the 2007-08 season, The Football Conference have been sponsored by Blue Square Bet. The leagues were renamed and are now known as Blue Square Premier, Blue Square North and Blue Square South.
