Description	The Washington National Republican, May 28, 1867 reports that 8 DC clubs met to form a picked team to play the Nationals. The attempt failed.  Attending were the Jefferson, Potomac, Union, Empire, Gymnastic, Continental, Olympic and Interior Clubs. Morris, Base Ball Pioneers, p. 265, says this club was formed in 1865, but remained obscure till 1867--perhaps because it was a junior club those years.

Comment	On June 7, 1872 the Olympic Club played a team from a touring Japanese troupe, the "Yeddo Royal Japanese Troupe." The Olympic won 18-17 in a rain shortened 5 inning game. See Kyodo News, July 18, 2019 Edit with form to add a comment

Win/Loss Records As Far As We Now Know

Warning: Users should not rely on a team's won-loss record as a reflection of its "standing" among all base ball clubs. Team schedules were not balanced, and a good record against mostly weak opponents does not signify a leading club.
