Description: The Louisville Brecks dated their beginnings back to 1899. Officially the name of the team was the Louisville Breckenridge Club. The Louisville Courier-Journal reported in 1922 that the Brecks dated "back fifteen years, springing from a boys neighborhood team, the Floyds and Brecks, that has kept itself intact probably longer than any independent team in the country." At first the team was considered an amateur team, made up of mostly neighborhood boys. However, by 1919, the team was considered professional, although evidently still made up of local players. The Brecks were one of eight teams that joined the NFL (then called the American Professional Football Association) in 1921 and played four seasons.
