ESPERANCE DISTRICT FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION

The Esperance District Football Association (EDFA) is based in the city of Esperance in Western Australia. It was formed in 1956.

In 1956 after many years of playing scrimmage matches between Esperance and Grass Patch a decision was made to create a football association. The first decision was two create two new football clubs. Gibson Football Club was created by excess players from the Esperance club and Salmon Gums was from surplus players from Grass Patch.

In 1957 saw the merger of Salmon Gums and Grass Patch, the new entity was called The Mallee. The association continued with three teams until the inclusion of Newtown in 1958.
