Biography

Mack arrived to Argentina in 1894 after graduating in Bachelor of Arts at the University of Cambridge. He primarily worked as teacher of both disciplines, mathematics and sports, at the Buenos Aires English High School, the institution founded and directed by Argentine football pioneer Alexander Watson Hutton.

Apart from teaching at the School, Mack played for legendary team Alumni since 1900 until its dissolution in 1911. He also played for the Argentina national team in the first match ever recorded against Uruguay on 16 May 1901.

In 1914 Mack returned Europe while the World War I was happening. He joined Royal Army Medical Corps but he had to abandon the activity after being injured in battle. Mack returned to Buenos Aires, where he continued teaching until his death.
