The club was owned by journalist and cabinet minister Paul Kamara.[1]
In 2024, facing financial difficulties, the club was purchased from Paul Kamara.[2] by E.A. Raddar, a Wellingtonian and a long time fan, who has since revived the clubs hopes and inspire them to compete again at a top level. With the new investment from the new owner brought in, there's been renewed enthusiasm from fans and supporters not only within the community but also in the East End of Freetown.
