PRESIDENT'S
MESSAGE
The
Mitchelton Football Club (FC) has been a large part of this suburb's
life since 1916 and many players and supporters who have turned out
for our Club have had long and fruitful associations with the
District. A number of families have now had a several generations
play with or support the Club.
Mitchelton
FC is one of the oldest sporting clubs in Brisbane and is the second
oldest registered football (soccer) Club in Brisbane. The vibrant,
family-based club now boasts more than 700 members and has members as
young as 5 years and as old as 60 years. Mitchelton FC has always
been a popular Club to play for and has always been one of, if not
the most supported Clubs in the region because of its friendly and
passionate member base.
Over
recent years our Club has become a leader in the sporting community
developing a range of initiatives that has enabled us to grow and
develop our business. Our success resulted in the Australian Sports
Commission awarding us the winner of the Ausport Club Development
Award in 2005 out of 3,000 registered Clubs in Australia.
In
2003 Mitchelton FC realised one of its lifelong dreams, after 83
years of effort by being promoted to the highest competition in
Queensland, the Brisbane Premier League.
The
Mitchelton Sports Club continues to strive towards providing local
people with the safest and most professional sporting environment
possible.
