Formation
Following the liquidation of Scarborough Football Club, Scarborough Athletic Football Club was founded as a continuation or rebirth of the previous club, by a supporters' trust named The Seadog Trust. They took on the same red kit, nickname, motto and official club logo from the earlier club. The Trust successfully applied for membership of the North Riding F.A. and the Northern Counties East League on 25 June 2007. Due to the unavailability of any suitable ground in the town, a ground-sharing agreement was made with Bridlington Town.
On 29 June the club appointed former North Ferriby United manager Brian France as their first manager, who brought with him many former Ferriby players.

Famous quotes containing the word formation:
“It is because the body is a machine that education is possible. Education is the formation of habits, a superinducing of an artificial organisation upon the natural organisation of the body.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
“I want you to consider this distinction as you go forward in life. Being male is not enough; being a man is a right to be earned and an honor to be cherished. I cannot tell you how to earn that right or deserve that honor. . . but I can tell you that the formation of your manhood must be a conscious act governed by the highest vision of the man you want to be.”
—Kent Nerburn (20th century)
“Those who were skillful in Anatomy among the Ancients, concluded from the outward and inward Make of an Human Body, that it was the Work of a Being transcendently Wise and Powerful. As the World grew more enlightened in this Art, their Discoveries gave them fresh Opportunities of admiring the Conduct of Providence in the Formation of an Human Body.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
