In the 2018–19 season, North District won the Hong Kong Second Division title and was promoted to the Hong Kong First Division.
On 22 June 2023, after finishing third in the First Division, North District was granted promotion to the Hong Kong Premier League by the HKFA board of directors.
Starting from the 2023–24 season, North District has been rebranded as Crownity North District due to sponsorship reasons.
