They joined the new North Premier Division for 2005 but dropped down to the North Division in 2006 competing as Sunderland Nissan.

They re-entered the North Premier Division for the summer seasons of 2007 and 2008. However, in 2009, the North Premier Division split into the North West Premier and the Yorkshire Premier. Sunderland subsequently returned to the North East Division, reverting to Sunderland City.
