Watsonia Football Club

Watsonia Football Club

The Watsonia Football Club is an Australian rules football club located in the northern Melbourne suburb of Watsonia.

Founded in 1967, the Watsonia Football Club entered the now defunct Panton Hill Football League for two seasons before transferring to the Diamond Valley Football League in 1969.

Whilst always competitive, the club has not been a consistently strong club. It's sole premiership success being a one-point victory in the 1987 DVFL second division grand final against Reservoir Lakeside. The club then declined the promotion to the first division due to the club's uncertainty about its playing strength and financial stability. It is the only DVFL club to ever refuse a promotion.
