History[edit]

Founded as Beacon in 1972, the club were renamed Seba United after a few years and has won the Jamaica Premier League in 1987 and 1997, the most famous one was in the 1996–97 season when they were docked twenty points but still found a way to the lift the title.[1] The club used to play their home games at Jarrett Park, which can hold a capacity of up to 4,000, and is located in Montego Bay.

Seba were relegated from the Jamaica Premier League after the 2007–08 season for the first time in their storied history and played in the Western Confederation Super League, before returning to Jamaica's top level for the 2011–12 season after winning the promotion play-offs.[2] Successful Peruvian coach Danilo Barriga however left the club just a few weeks before the end of the season.[3]

In July 2011, the franchise was acquired by Orville Powell[4] and renamed and rebranded as Montego Bay United F.C,[5][6] despite earlier claims by former chairman Bruce Gaynor it would not ever happen.[7] They used to play their home games at Montego Bay Sports Complex, Montego Bay.

In 2013 they moved to the WespoW Park stadium in the Tucker area of Montego Bay. They were premier league champions, having won the 2015–16 season.
