Aba Sports Club

Aba Sports Club was founded as Aba European Club in 1921 and incorporated as such on 12th March, 1926. Its membership was then exclusively European, but by 1926, it had admitted 12 Africans. Thereafter, African membership of the Club increased; and in 1970, the first Nigerian President of the Club, Mr. Raleke Nwosu was elected. The changes brought about by independence, led to the re-naming of the Club as Aba Club, and with the growing interest of the Club in Sports, the name was again changed, on 14th October 1982, to Aba Sports Club, which it has retained till today.
