History

Mighty Young Joe FC, established in 2008 by Agnelo Picardo and led by Joe Miranda, primarily competes in veteran and rink tournaments around the city.

Before the 2023–24 Mumbai Premier League, MYJ bought a 70% stake in Goalorious Mothers Sporting Club which was based in Immaculate Conception Colony, Borivali, and led by Jeddy Almeida. GMSC was founded on 5th September 2018 and had been competing in Mumbai's top division for five years before the merger. The GMSC club crest prominently features the image of Mother Mary from whom the club derives its name. The announcement of this alliance was made at the official jersey launch event.

Joe Miranda has been an integral figure in the football community for over a decade, having organized private and veteran tournaments. On the merger, he said:

I wanted to get into professional leagues, and Vijith and Steven suggested Jeddy and GMSC, and that’s how it came about.

On 1 May 2024, they drew their penultimate game against Millat FC to win the title and stay unbeaten throughout the tournament.
