Yokohama Meiji 1900s Unknown

A soccer game at the grounds of the Yokohama Cricket & Athletic Club (YCAC) at Yokohama Park (横浜公演) in Yokohama, sometime in the late 1900s.

Launched as the Yokohama Cricket Club in 1868 (Meiji 1), and now known as the the Yokohama Country & Athletic Club, the YCAC introduced many Western sports to Japan.

Soccer was quickly adopted by young Japanese. According to YCAC records, the Club won a soccer game against students of the Tokyo University of Education in 1904 (Meiji 37).
