100 Years Ago Today

July 22, 1922 Sam Mark (born Markelevitch) officially purchased the rights of Fall River Football Club and the berth of the Marksmen was official.

Our club historian, Derek Goncalves has done extraordinary work over the years in digging up stories and artifacts from the original days of the Marksmen and now on our birthday, Derek will guide you through the clubs storied history.

Please visit the following link (below) for Derek’s in-depth look at the Marksmen, including some very, very rare photos. A special thank you to the Society of American Soccer History for hosting the article and for helping to keep the memories of the Marksmen alive and well.

Happy 100th Anniversary Marksmen !!! We look forward to the future and ensuring the name & history of the club and all of it’s players remain at the forefront of U.S. Soccer.
