Everton de Viña del Mar is aChilean football club based in the city ofViña del Mar.
The club was founded 24 June 1909 after a group ofAnglo-Chilean teenagers formed a football club and named it after the English teamEverton who had recently completed a pioneering tour of South America. The club'snickname is "Ruleteros" or theroulette players in English, after Viña del Mar's status as agambling resort.
Everton is Chile's sixth most successful team, having won the national title 4 times, an achievement shared with bothAudax Italiano andMagallanes. Additionally, it is the second most successful team outsideSantiago de Chile, behindCobreloa ofCalama.

On 24 June 1909, a group of immigrants from England, led by David Foxley, founded Everton Football Club in Cerro Alegre ofValparaíso. The choice of this name is still to this day a mystery, although there are various competing theories. The most accepted theory is that this was chosen in honour of thenamesake club in the city ofLiverpool, which was, by then, touringArgentina. Another theory states the name of a toffee at the time. The first president was Francisco Boundy, while David Foxley was appointed honorary chairman. In 1950 the club was renamed Everton de Viña del Mar.
The first match played was against Graphie FC with the starting lineup composed of Arturo Foxley as thegoalkeeper, Percy Holmes and Francisco Boundy as thedefenders; Alberto González, Hugo Boundy and Carlos González as themidfielders and finally J. Escobar, A. Aravena, David Foxley, V. Estay and Malcolm Fraser as thestrikers.
