Formed in 1912 and then known as Swansea Town, the club found its first home on a piece of waste ground where cabbage-like plant vetch grew wild. Their stadium was called Vetch Field as a result and the Swansea Jacks witnessed a rollercoaster of fortunes throughout their 93-year stay at the venue.

The club played in the South Leagues until 1920 and, with the exception of two seasons in the top flight of English football during the 1980's, the club spent much of their time in the lower echelons of the Football League, but the move to the state-of-the-art all-seater Liberty Stadium coincided with a remarkable upturn in fortunes.

Swansea also share the Liberty Stadium with the Ospreys rugby union team and the venue has hosted international matches for Wales.
