History

The club was founded on July 28, 1927 by a group of young enthusiasts from the city Callao who got together to fulfill the dream of Gualberto Lizárraga, form a football club. The day before Peru's independence day, July 27, they met. At midnight, the group sang the national anthem of Peru. Afterwards, they began forming the club and Gualberto Lizárraga became president. The group then unanimously voted for the club name to be Sport Boys Association.

The team's original uniform was not pink but striped red and yellow.

Sport Boys was the first Peruvian football club to feature cheerleaders. Many of them, including Anelhí Arias, Shirley Cherres, and others that have become famous Peruvian celebrities. Some of the up's were qualifying.

Stadium

Sport Boys play their home games at the Estadio Miguel Grau. It has a capacity of about 15,000. Before this stadium was built, they had to use the 5,000 spectator capacity Telmo Carbajo, a stadium that was in bad condition and unfit to host football matches. It was the first stadium in Callao. Sport Boys were forced to play their games in the Estadio Nacional, where they would be far away from their fans.

Recent years

The last time Sport Boys became champions of the Primera División Peruana was 1984. Since then they have had a rollercoaster of ups and downs. Some of the ups have been being runner ups to win the first division in 1990 and 1991 after having won the Segunda División Peruana to gain promotion. In 1999 the Sport Boys qualified for the Copa CONMEBOL, and in 2001 for the Copa Libertadores. Since then that team has had more down's then up's with them saving themselves from relegation to the Segunda División Peruana by winning a end of season playoff match that went down to a penalty shootout against José Gálvez in the 2006 season. This 2008 campaign has been worse than the 2007 so far leaving the Sport Boys in the basement of the standings for most of the Apertura tournament. Financial issues are also haunting the club in 2008, these issues are so severe that they have not been able to pay their players from March 08' until the present time. Some players like Montenegro have had to do taxi work at night to be able to feed themselves and their family. Until finally they descended and are playing in Segunda División Peruana.
