In 1907, the club changed its name to Palermo Foot-Ball Club, and the team colours were changed to the current pink and black.
The first official match, played on 18 April 1901 against Messina Football Club, ended in a 3–2 win to the Palermitan side. The first recorded football match, played by the team on 30 December 1900, ended in a 5–0 defeat to an unidentified amateur English team. The initial staff comprised three Englishmen and nine natives of Palermo, with Whitaker as honorary chairman, Edward De Garston as inaugural president and with red and blue as the original team colours. The club is thought to have been founded by Ignazio Majo Pagano, a young Palermitan colleague of Whitaker who had discovered football while at college in London in the UK, where the modern game of football originated. The most common and officially stated foundation date is 1 November 1900, as the Anglo Palermitan Athletic and Football Club. Actually, there is a probable misinterpretation of some sources: in April 1897, the future founders of Palemo Calcio founded the association Sport Club.
Some authorities think it may have been as early as 1898 due to the existence of papers addressed to Joseph Whitaker, English consul in Palermo and originally believed to be first club president, about a Palermo football team founded in the month of April of that year. There is some debate and uncertainty about the exact date the club was founded.
