Club history
Established in 1888, the club claims to be the oldest in continual existence in New Zealand.[1] They have twice won the Chatham Cup, in 1959 and 1961, and have been finalists on eight other occasions.[2]
After amalgamating with Maori Hill (founded 1904) in 1972, the club was briefly known as Dunedin North End (1972–1974) and then as North End United, a name it used until 1990.
Northern's club strip is a vertical black and white striped shirt, black shorts and socks.
