History

The league was established in 2016 as Herefordshire FA County League after the disbandment of the Herefordshire Football League.[1]

In July 2019, the league was restructured with the Premier Division increasing from 13 to 15 clubs.[2]

In 2021, the Premier Division became a feeder league to Step 6 of the National League System.[3][4] Hartpury University became the first club to be promoted to Hellenic League Division One.

In July 2022, the competition was renamed to Herefordshire Football League and the Premier Division expanded to 18 teams.[5]

In February 2023, the Herefordshire FA agreed a two-year sponsorship deal with broadband company Zzoomm which saw the Herefordshire Football League be renamed the ZZOOMM Herefordshire Football League from the 2023–24 season.[6]
