Sunderland was established in 1879 after a meeting of schoolteachers, who had started teaching at Hendon Board School. Initially, the club was called Sunderland and District Teachers' Association Football Club, but one year later, non-teachers were allowed to join and the club's name changed to Sunderland AFC. The "AFC" stands for Association Football Club.
