Annagh United Football Club was founded in 1963, hails from Portadown and plays its home matches at Tandragee Road, their home since 1983. Indeed when the club opened its new pitch Northern Ireland footballing legend, the great George Best turned out in an Annagh United select side.
The club home colours have always been a mixture of red and white with black trim, with the current Hummel kit being the first consisting of red and white only with sponsership provided by MET Mesh.
The club run two senior teams, the first playing in the newly formed Ladbrokes.com Championship 2 and the reserve team playing in the Mid Ulster League, Division 3. More recently under the guidance of Geoff Davison, the club have developed an Annagh United Youth team who play in the Under 17 Mid Ulster Youth League.

In time for the beginning of the 2009 NI Womens Football Association League, local newcomers Portadown Integrated Ladies FC have recently signed up to use the club as their base for the season, adding another string to the bow of the expanding club.
The club is now entering a new era now that manager of three years, Keith Wilkinson has left. Ex-Dunmurray manager David Johnstone has been appointed as First Team manager and will be assisted by UEFA Pro coach, Alan Nixon and long serving Annagh midfielder, Michael Crowe. The squad currently includes some ex-Irish Premier League players as well as some promising young talents. Annagh United have performed consistently in the Irish League and finished in the top four within the last two years. Under the leadership of Johnstone and hos backroom team, Annagh United hope to build on the clubs previous experiences while at the same time restructuring the set-up with Championship 1 football a future goal.
The last 10 years have also brought some notable cup runs, none less than 2006-07 under the reign of Niall Currie, now boss at Loughgall F.C., when they reached the Mid Ulster Cup final against local senior club Newry City and the Belfast Telegraph Intermediate Cup Semi Final against Coagh United. Ironically, Annagh lost out to the latter team in the Bob Radcliffe Cup semi-final earlier in the season.
