The British Football Club was a former Mexican football team that played in the ''Liga Mexicana de Football Amateur Association'' prior to the professionalization and development of the México Primera División. ==History== The club was founded in 1902 by Percy Clifford, a Cornish immigrant, who at the time was a member of the Club Reforma. Clifford decided to dedicate his life to becoming one of the best players in the Mexican league and would later go on to become a Manager and board member for the club. The club's main source of economic support came from the Club Británico, a British sports club in Mexico City, which was founded in 1899. The team played its home games in the Club Británico's multifunction park which was directly in front of its headquarters. The club sometimes traded players with the Reforma Athletic Club a day before a match in order to fill each club's rosters. Clifford had been involved in the establishment of the Reforma Athletic Club football team in 1902. The two clubs were linked in this way because both had British roots. Members of the team were accustomed to wear elegant uniforms claiming that sport and good taste were not contradictory. At half time the teams would drink tea at tables that had been set at the sidelines and were attended by beautiful women. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「British Club (football)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
