Oldest club of their respective country playing a football competition organized by an official organization, still existing (can be x clubs)
If clubs fused with another club to become a new club after their achievement, they are not deemed still existing anymore. If there are gaps without competitive activity in a clubs history, they should be justified. Only when these gaps were unvoluntary (wars, political reasons) they can be justified. If clubs decided to either initial or later play football in another countries competition, while still playing home games in a venue part of the territory they are located in, then these club's can be Oldest Milestone clubs.
