[edit] History
Founded along with the Harbour View community in the 1960s, the professional Harbour View F.C. was officially established in 4 March 1974. The team was officially incorporated as a limited liability company 25 years after that, and was the first Jamaica football club to become incorporated.
Harbour View Football Club has developed a reputation for firsts in Jamaica. It is the first club to have a website, and the first to build a world-class football stadium (capable of hosting night games). The HVFC management is also setting the pace in bringing true professionalism to Jamaicas football landscape. At the start of the 2006/2007 season, the club's equipment was sponsored by Adidas.
The club generates revenues through sponsorships, match tickets and other businesses such as stadium bars and western union.
