The club was formed in 2000, with the formation of an under 14 boys team in order to compete in the BAA Millennium Games. This team would go on to compete in at U14, U16 and U18 regional level. Several of these players now turn out for the Senior Men's team at National League level.
The Wolves' first National League team would be an U16 boys team entering for the 2003-04 season, under the guidance of club founder Alan Hastie.
After a few years of steady growth, the senior team won Division 2 of the Lothian League in 2007 after going unbeaten all season. The team therefore achieved promotion to Division 1.
The team continued to post solid performances in Division 1 of the Lothian League, before claiming the league title in 2014. The year after, the team would enter the first full season of the newly reintroduced National League Division 2, where they have remained since.
The club uses various venues across the West Lothian council area.
