DC Presidents DC Presidents The DC Presidents were a British American Football team based in County Durham who were disbanded for two short periods. DC Presidents reformed 4 October 2017 under new chairman Mark Quinn. The Presidents started in February 1985 when American Football enthusiasts Jeff Rutter and John Lockhart formed The Washington Presidents, named after the birthplace of the first US President George Washington’s grandfather; the summer of 1985 saw the club's first ever game. They played against another local new team the Darlington Dragons, which the Presidents won 62–10, with founder Jeff Rutter scoring on his début game as quarterback.
