History
In April 1895, the Centreville A.C. joined the newly establish National Association Football League (NAFBL), a professional soccer league encompassing northern New Jersey and New York City.[1] The team had been in existence previously as a recreational club. The first season in the NAFBL went well for Centreville as it took the title. However, the records for the league’s second season have not been fully reconstructed and the final standings are unknown. The onset of a major recession combined with the Spanish-American War led to a suspension of the league in 1899.
