West Hudson A.A.

Founded in 1905, the team won a 'triple' when they finished first in both the Metropolitan and New Jersey Association Football Leagues and captured the 1906 American Cup.

The two companies drew Scottish immigrants to their plants which then served as the basis for many of the areas powerhouse teams.

In Harrison, the West Hudson A.A. drew its players from the city at large, rather than operating as a company team like many others in the area.

On October 10, 1905, they were listed as a founding member of the Metropolitan Association Football League (MAFL) of New York City.

The crowds were limited and after losing money, the league folded with most teams playing only five of the planned twelve matches.
