Brooklyn Wanderers I

History

In December 1894 the Wanderers were a key part of the formation of the National Association Football League.[1] The league suspended operations in 1899. The team's competitive record then becomes difficult to follow as it appears to have operated as an independent club. In September 1901, it lost to the Bayonne Rangers during a Labor Day sports carnival.[2] In 1906, a member of the Wanderers acted as a referee in a game between Critchleys and Brooklyn Thistle.[3] This rare reference to the Wanderers is significant in that Critchley's outside right Nat Agar (listed as Agot) later owned the Wanderers. In 1912, the Wanderers rejoined the NAFBL, but withdrew only six games into the season. Several of the players then jumped to Brooklyn F.C.[4] In 1922, the Wanderers, now owned by Agar, joined the American Soccer League which had been formed in 1921 by the merger of the NAFBL and the Southern New England Soccer League. During its years in the ASL, the Wanderers played at Hawthorne Field, a dedicated soccer stadium owned by Agar.[5] After the 1925/26 ASL season the Wanderers, the Boston Wonder Workers and the New Bedford Whalers joined with four top Canadian clubs to form the one-off International Soccer League held that summer and early fall. The Wanderers won the season championship, but lost to Toronto Ulster United in the final of the league's Nathan Strauss Cup.

The Wanderers folded after the 1931 Spring season, the first half of the ASL 1931 season.
