Founded in 1875.

According to a letter from Roger White (matriculated 1945) to the College Magazine, 2003-2004 the club had ceased to exist due to the Second World War. He went to the rooms of Freddie Mutesa in Mallory Court (Sir Edward Frederick William David Walugembe Mutebi Luwangula Mutesa II Kabaka (king) of the kingdom of Buganda in Uganda from 1939 until his death in 1969. He was the 35th Kabaka of Buganda and the first president of Uganda (1962-1966), when he was overthrown by Milton Obote.

They agreed that they should re-start the Football Club. They needed to get clothing coupons for a set of shirts and authority to re-start the club. They got permission from Frank Salter. The Club had a good year and got to the Cuppers Final where they were beaten by St John's. (College Magazine, 2003-2004, pp. 127-128, includes a photograph of the team from 1945-1946).
