    TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE GREEN BAY PACKERS EDITION Green Bay Packers Team History The incredible saga of the Green Bay Packers began in August 1919, when the Indian Packing Com- pany agreed to sponsor a local pro football team under the direction of Earl (Curly) Lambeau. In 1921, the Packers were granted a membership in the new National Football League. Today, they rank as the third oldest team in pro football. The long and storied history of the Green Bay team is one of struggle, until comparatively recent, for fi nancial survival off the fi eld and playing stabil- ity on the fi eld. The Packers’ record has been punctuated with periods of both the highest success and the deepest depths of defeat. Many great football players have performed for the Green Bay team but two coaches, Lambeau and Vince Lombardi, rank as the most dominant fi gures in the Packers’ epic. Between the two, Lambeau and Lombardi brought the Packers 11 NFL championships, including two record strings of three straight titles, the fi rst in 1929, 1930 and 1931 and the second in 1965, 1966 and 1967. Those last three championships completed the Packers’ dynasty years in the 1960s, which began with Green Bay also winning NFL championships in 1961 and 1962. During the late 1930s and early 1940s, the Lam- beau-led Packers were annual championship contenders. They won four divisional crowns and NFL titles in 1936, 1939 and 1944. Individually, Lambeau, Lombardi and 20 long-time Packers players are enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Hall of Fame players from the early years include Don Hutson, history’s fi rst great pass receiver, Arnie Herber, Clarke Hinkle, Cal Hubbard, John (Blood) McNally, Mike Michalske and Tony Canadeo.
