American college football season

1903 Tampa football Independent 3–2–1 Bobby Lynch Bert Steadman
The 1903 Tampa football team was an amateur American football team based in Tampa, Florida which competed during the 1903 college football season. The Tampa Football club should not be confused with the University of Tampa's football program, as the school was not established until 1933.
The Tampa team was active for several years in the early 1900s and competed against early college football squads along with amateur teams organized by military bases and other local clubs from around Florida. The club's founder and manager, local businessman J. L. Reed, was considered instrumental in bringing the game of football to Tampa.https://www.newspapers.com/clip/107904947/the-tampa-tribune/ Clipped from the Tampa Tribune The Tampa Tribune 9 October 1903 2 https://www.newspapers.com/clip/44050062/obituary-for-j-l-reed-aged-68/ Obituary for J.
