The 1878–79 season was the first season in the history ofWest Bromwich Albion Football Club. The club was formed in 1878 under the name West Bromwich Strollers, by workers from theGeorge Salter's Spring Works inWest Bromwich. The name "Strollers" is said to have been coined when the players were unable to purchase a football in West Bromwich and thus had to walk two miles toWednesbury to buy one there instead.^[3]

The club's first recorded match—and their only recorded match from the 1878–79 season—took place on 23 November 1878. The game was a 12-a-side homefriendly against workers from Hudson's, a local soap factory, and finished 0–0.^[4] Although the exact venue was not recorded, it is known that the club played at bothCooper's Hill andDartmouth Park during their first few years.^[5] Evidence of the Hudson's match did not come to light until 1993;^[3] at some point after this discovery, the club altered their published date of formation from 1879 to 1878.
