History
After the collapse of Galaxy F.C., Brandon Murray and Chris Dawes decided to start a new club in Clarendon to take the parish' place at Jamaica's top tier and in 2000 Sporting Central Academy was formed. They play their home games at Murray's farm, a few miles down the road from May Pen. They finally clinched promotion to the top level in June 2007, under former managers Chris Dawes and Kevin Williams, and are the first team from Clarendon to compete there, since Hazard United's move to St Catherine in 2003.
After Dawes left for the United States in 2009, Donovan Duckie took the reins but left the club in February 2010 after disagreements with Murray. Dawes would then return to manage the team until former assistant Vassell Reynolds was appointed head coach before the start of the 2011/2012 season.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“There is no history of how bad became better.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“History has neither the venerableness of antiquity, nor the freshness of the modern. It does as if it would go to the beginning of things, which natural history might with reason assume to do; but consider the Universal History, and then tell us,—when did burdock and plantain sprout first?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
