About Everton
One of the 12 founder members of the Football League, Everton has spent more seasons in England's top division than any other club (114) and been crowned champions on nine occasions.
The Merseyside club, founded in 1878 as St Domingo, has also lifted the FA Cup five times and, in 1985, added the European Cup Winners' Cup to their prestigious haul.
Throughout its 138-year history Everton has been known as a family-oriented outfit based on proud traditions, earning the moniker 'The People's Club'. Those traditions have also encouraged innovation, ensuring Everton has remained one of the great pioneering clubs in the history of the game.

It was also the first club to see its players wear shirts numbered 1 to 11, the first club to go on an overseas tour, the first club to install dugouts and undersoil heating, the first club to feature in a televised match, the first club to introduce a regular matchday programme, the first club to present its players with medals for winning the Football League championship and the first club to have a player break the 60 goals barrier in a single league season.
