Southport Football Club is an English association football club based in Southport, Merseyside who currently play in the Conference National.[1] This list details the club's achievements in senior league and cup competitions, and the top scorers for each season where known.

Southport Central were formed in 1881 and played their first association football match on 12 November of that year against Bootle.[2][3] Originally a rugby union side the club switched codes after suffering a succession of heavy defeats.[3] The club became founder members of The Central League in 1911.[4] In 1918, the club was renamed as Southport Vulcan [4][5] - having been bought by the Vulcan Motor Company - becoming the first club to take a sponsor's name.[6][7] In 1919, the club dropped Vulcan from their name and were now known simply as Southport and have been ever since. In 1921, all first teams playing in the Central League became founder members of the newly formed Football League Third Division North including Southport,[4] with the Central League becoming a league for Football League reserve teams.[8]
