History
In 1979, George D. Baker, president of Datagraphic, a printing firm located in Atlanta, Georgia, founded a men’s amateur soccer team.[1] The team rapidly proved itself as one nation’s top amateur clubs as it took the 1979 National Amateur Cup.[2] Over the years, the club expanded to include youth, women’s and over-30 teams. By the mid-1980s, the club had over thirty teams. In 1986, the senior team was coached by David Chadwick.[3] In 1992, it fielded a semi-professional club, the Atlanta Datagraphic Magic in the USISL.[4] Datagraphic played in the Atlanta District Amateur Soccer League during the 1980s.
