Founded in 1884 as "Aryan Sports Club",[11] it started playing football some years later, making it one of Asia's oldest football clubs.[12] It plays home matches at the East Bengal-Aryan Ground.[13]

History

[edit]

Formation and journey (1884–1930)

[edit]

During the age of associations of Bengali nationalism in late 19th century, Sir Dukhiram Majumder, Kalicharan Mitra, Manmatha Ganguly were the pupils of Nagendra Prasad Sarbadhikari, who practiced and popularized football.[14][15] Majumder founded a sporting organization named "Students Union" in Mohun Bagan Villa.[16][17] When the organization discontinued due to disagreements over wearing boots, Majumder went on to form Aryans Club in Maharaja Durga Charan Laha's Telipara field in Shyampukur.[18][19][20] Before the advent of East Bengal and Mohammedan Sporting, it was Aryan (then known as Aryans Club)[21] and Mohun Bagan,[22] who enjoyed an elite status among Indian football clubs.[23][24][25] Founded in 1884 as a multi-sports club, association football was introduced in Aryan few years later and thus it became one of the oldest football clubs in India.[26][27][28][29]

Dukhiram Majumder (1875–1929) became father figure of Aryans during the pre-independence era, regarded as first coach of India who brought up and guided players like Syed Abdus Samad,[30][31] Gostha Pal,[32] Shibdas Bhaduri and others.[33] Forming a coaching institute within the club,[34] he managed the team throughout his life.[35] It was Majumder, who started Aryan's famous policy of bringing up unknown yet talented footballers. In 1914, the Indian Football Association (IFA) permitted only two native clubs in the CFL Second Division; It Aryan one of them.[36][37] In that season, Mohun Bagan earned promotion to the Premier Division but Aryan was promoted to the top division two years later.[38][39] Syed Abdus Samad joined Aryans in 1915.[40] Under Majumdar's coaching, Aryan achieved fourth place in 1920–21 Calcutta Football League and reached the semi-finals of Rovers Cup in 1928. Legendary footballers Balaidas Chatterjee and Karuna Bhattacharya appeared with Aryan at that time.[41][42][43][44]

1930–1960

[edit]

While Aryan didn't enjoy the same degree of success as Mohun Bagan, they did perform well in patches. The club participated consecutively in the Calcutta Football League with their rivals, and Mohammed Salim (first Indian footballer who played for an overseas club) was one of the legendary players who appeared with Aryan in 1933–34.[45][46] In the mid-1930s, Dukhiram's nephew Santosh Kumar "Chone" Majumder became head coach of the club.[47] One of Aryan's greatest moments came in 1940, that year, they won IFA Shield defeating Mohun Bagan 4–1, one of India's premier tournaments.[48][49] They became only the 3rd Indian run club to win the prestigious title. Moreover, they crushed Mohun Bagan 4–1 in the final.[50] In the 40s, Alil Dey and Modassar Yasin Ali Khan from Tangail, became two of the earliest known Bangladeshi footballers to play for the club.[51]

Iconic Indian footballer Sahu Mewalal had two stints with Aryan from 1945 to 1946 and 1956–57.[52]

Aryan enjoyed another spell of success in mid-1950s, reaching the final of IFA Shield in 1955 and 1956 with an ageing Sahu Mewalal in their ranks, who scored multiple hat-tricks for the team.[53][54][55] He also emerged as top scorer of CFL in 1949, 1951, 1953, 1954, and 1958.[56] Before or after gaining independence from the British raj, Aryan participated in every Calcutta Football League editions (until the formation of Premier Division B),[3][57][58] which is Asia's oldest football league.[59] During that time, legendary players from Bengal including Sanat Seth[60] have appeared with the club colours.

1960–1980

[edit]

As the years progressed they gradually lost their status as a top club, instead Aryan became the breeding ground of some of the most famous players in Kolkata maidan. Players like Pradip Kumar Banerjee,[61] Prasun Banerjee, Sanat Seth,[62] Pradyut Barman,[62] Goutam Sarkar,[63] Jahar Das,[64] and Sudhir Karmakar started out in Aryan, before moving on to the bigger clubs. Balai Dey, the only footballer who represented the two nations India and Pakistan in international football,[65] appeared with Aryan in 1967.[66][67] Other than another IFA Shield win in 1983 (title shared with East Bengal), Aryan didn't achieve a lot of success in modern era.[68]

On the morning of 5 August 1971, the Naxalite intellectual and poet Saroj Dutta was killed by the police in the grounds of the Aryan club on the Calcutta maidan.[69] In 1975, Aryan emerged champion of Sir Churachand Singh Memorial Football Tournament defeating Rajasthan Club.[70][71]

1990–present

[edit]

In 1998, Aryan reached the final of All Airlines Gold Cup but lost 4–3 to East Bengal in penalty-shootout.[72] They again finished on second position in 2010. In 2019, the club tent in Kolkata Maidan was refurbished.[73]

In June 2023, the Indian Football Association (IFA) announced the merger of both Premier Division A and B of the Calcutta Football League (CFL) ahead of its 125th edition, in which Aryan was included in Group II.[74][75][76][77] In a match of that league season on 19 July, Aryan striker Saikat Sarkar scored a stunning goal from side volley against Calcutta Customs; soon the IFA sent clippings of that goal to the FIFA for Puskás Award.[78][79][80]
