Chill Eagles Football Club was founded by Julius Ndhala and Phillip McLoughlin, in the final weeks of August 2011, as an expansion of Prescot Community Church's pre-existing football cell. Using existing members of the cell, a team was launched with the intention of joining the Merseyside Christian League the following year, representing the church and it's youth club, Chill Youth Club.
Under the primary care of Julius, The Eagles spent the duration of the 2011-2012 season playing friendlies against teams such as Alder Warriors and Bankhall Mission, in preparation for their first, full, competitive season. Before the start of the 2012-2013 season, Julius left Chill Eagles; leaving Cyrille Diabe incharge with Phillip as his assistant.
During the run up to the 2012-2013 season it was decided that Chill Eagles' would play in royal-blue and black stripes. Sometime into The Eagle's first season; Cyrille also left the club, leaving Phillip as the sole manager of the team until he approached Daniel Hogan to step up into an administrative and managerial role. Together Phillip and Daniel oversaw the Eagles' first complete season, which saw them finish second from bottom (above Mossley Hill Churches). The 2012-2013 season also saw the club's first official captain nominated; Phillip Hidderley.
During the break between the next season; The Rotary Club of Prescot became the club's first official sponsor, promting a change to a new kit, were the royal blue of the previous season had been abandoned and replaced with red. The new, refreshed Eagle's finished the 2013-2014 with a 2 place improvement, clearing the bottom of the table by 3 places and vastly improving on the previous seasons goal difference and also celebrated becoming an FA Charter Standard team.
