The initial history of the competition was as part of the USA Cross Country Championships, founded in 1890. In 1975, the club element was partially divided from the main, individual focused national championship. The club event was held in fall while the individual event was held in winter. This arrangement became formal and permanent in 1998, with all national selections being moved to the winter competition and the USATF National Club Championships taking its current title.[2]
Since 2018, this served as a selection meet for Great Stirling Cross Country meet in Scotland. The next event is scheduled for December 14, 2019 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
