  1. Pullman F.C.

    Pullman F.C. was one of the dominant U.S. soccer team of the early twentieth century. Established in 1893 as the Pullman Company team, it was an inaugural member of the Chicago League of Association Football before moving to the Association Football League. It dominated the Peel Cup during the 1910s and early 1920s. History In 1893, the Pullman Company entered its newly created company soccer team as an inaugural member of the Chicago League of Association Football CLAF . Over the years, the Pullman Company sponsored numerous soccer teams, including teams for women, but the senior team remained in the CLAF for decades, competing for both the league championship, known as the Spalding Cup, and league cup, known as the Jackson Challenge Cup. However, in 1883, Pullman F.C. gained with honor of playing the first official association football game in Chicago. In 1904, a new Chicago league, the Association Football League, was created as a rival to the CLAF. Pullman soon jumped leagues as the CLAF faded into obscurity to be replaced by the AFA as the city s dominant league. In 1913, the AFA collapsed, but was quickly replaced by the Chicago and District League, better known as the Chicago Soccer League. In the early twenties, Pullman moved to the Chicago Major Soccer League. Year by year class wikitable Year League Reg.
