The club was organized in 1901 and its quarters were in the Wright Building. According to an article in the Denton Record-Chronicle, "it was not organized to sponsor baseball or football, but to afford young men of the city an opportunity to enjoy and improve themselves in a well-equipped gymnasium." They formed a football and baseball team in 1902 and played each year, until the club disbanded in 1908. The Gainesville team and Denton were bitter rivals.
