History

The club was one of many army sides which played football in India when deployed there, and the club twice won the Durand Cup. [4]

While deployed at the Victoria Barracks, Belfast, the team played in the Irish Football League for the 1903–04 season. [5] [6] Previously, the battalion had been resident in Dublin, where it played in the Leinster Senior League. [7]

The unit was sent to Glasgow in 1907 and entered the Scottish Qualifying Cup in 1907–08, losing 5–1 at Renton in the first round, despite Wreford keeping "a brilliant goal" for the visitors. [8] The club entered again in 1908–09 but scratched to Lennox Amateurs. [9]
