The club was formed from the merger of Blockhouse Bay (founded 1948) and Green Bay-Titirangi United (founded 1973) in 1998. Blockhouse Bay had been a prominent Auckland team, and were winners of the 1970 Chatham Cup, and losing finalists in 1975. Bay Olympic were losing finalists of the 2010 Chatham Cup. They made it to the semi-final stage of the Chatham Cup for 2011 and also won the 2011 NRFL Premier League.

Bay Olympic ended the 2018 Lotto Sport Italia NRFL Premier in the 12th spot, being relegated to Division One.[1]
