The club was originally formed in the mid-1950s playing under a variety of names, which included Pontymister Rovers, Pontymister Rangers and plain Pontymister. A further name change to AC Pontymister occurred in 1977 following an enforced relocation of their home ground from Tanybryn to Pontymister Recreation Ground.[1]
