our history
The Bacchus Marsh Football & Netball Club has been the heartbeat of our community since 1978 after the Bacchus Marsh Tigers Football Club (formed in 1881) and the Maddingley Spiders Football Club (formed in 1909) merged together to form our club today. once playing in the Bacchus Marsh & Districts football league, the club made its way over to the Ballarat Football league in 1978 which is where it remains today
In the clubs 38th year, we won a maiden senior premiership in 2016 with a win against Sunbury Lions at Eastern Oval (BMFNC 13.21.99 DEF SLFNC 5.14.44). The team was coached by Travis Hodgson and captained by Life Member and Current player Tyson Shea
Fostering a rich legacy of sporting history, we are dedicated to providing opportunities for athletes of all ages while strengthening the bonds of our town through passion and local pride. Our long-standing connection with the Bacchus Marsh community drives our commitment to nurturing the next generation through robust junior development pathways. We remain steadfast in our dedication to supporting both football and netball across all ages, ensuring a strong future for our club and its members.
