About
The Old Melburnians Football Club competes in the VAFA.
When the Metropolitan Amateur Football Association, predecessor of the VAFA, resumed operations following WWI in 1920, Old Melburnians (which comprised former pupils of Melbourne Grammar School) was one of four new clubs to make its debut.
As one of the oldest and proudest clubs in the VAFA, Old Melburnians has achieved much of note, including 14 senior grade premierships. Names like Cordner, Peck, McMullin, Thompson, Rutherford, Rollason and Witts resonate like few others in the amateur game.
