Promotion to Welsh League Division 2 was achieved at the first attempt. In the year 2000, Hoover Sports moved to the ICI Rifle Fields ground in Pant, just off the A465, raising £500,000 to upgrade the facilities and changing their name to Merthyr Saints FC. Merthyr Saints remained in Welsh League Division 2 for ten consecutive seasons with their highest finishing position being fifth in 2003/04. Merthyr Saints were unfortunate to be relegated to Welsh League Division 3 at the end of the 2006/07 season after finishing fourth from bottom of division 2.At the end of 2008/2009 season they were relegated and now play in the South Wales Amateur League (Division 1).
