History
Marley Hill FC was created by 3 businessmen in 1923, who were trying to create a football team that could symbolize Marley. They ended up with the name "Marley Sharks" and joined the first ever league alongside Szawende Lions, AFC Portland, Minszes Town FC, Darija Zebras and Ilmantas FC. Their first season (1923-24) went well, they came 2nd with a 1 point difference to the champions, Szawende Lions. Their second season (1924-1925), was better. They finished 1st with the most amount of points possible at that time (60).
