Senior Men
Five men’s teams, from Metropolitan League 1 through to our Over 45s, all training and playing at Fawkner Park in the heart of Melbourne.
The men’s program has grown to five teams. 2026 was its strongest season in years: Metro 3 finished as League Premiers and Champions, Metro 2 went back-to-back as M2 Premiers, and Metro 1 reached the finals series.
Fawkner Park sits minutes from the CBD, and the men’s teams reflect that – players from every background and every stage of a footballing life, from first-season seniors through to the Over 45s. Whatever level you last played at, there is a side here for you.
A season to remember
Three of our men’s sides finished 2026 with silverware or a finals campaign to show for it.
Our five men’s teams
Metro 1
Our top men’s side competes in Metropolitan League 1 and reached the finals series in 2026. The squad trains on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at Fawkner Park.
Metro 2
