History
Some of our short (but passionate and progressive) history!
*2013*: Jan Mildenhall assumes the role of Secretary at the Mordialloc Sporting Club and, along with former Secretary Jacqui Millar, begins gauging interest in establishing a new junior football team in the area, located between Edithvale-Aspendale and Mordi-Brae Junior Football Clubs. Flyers are produced with the support of seven local schools to promote the vision for the new club.
*2014* The Mordialloc Redbacks Junior Football Club is officially established with 19 players for its inaugural season.
*2018* The club runs its season out of shipping containers while awaiting approval for the construction of a new pavilion.
*2019* The new state-of-the-art H.A. Droop pavilion at Ben Kavanagh Reserve is handed over to the club (read press release)
*2023* The Mordy Redbacks Junior Football Club has grown to over 100 junior football players. Impressively, half of our teams have advanced to the league's finals, and we've received nominations for seven league awards. Additionally, four of our players have trialled for inter-league positions, and we proudly note that our first two players who have risen through the juniors program have entered the senior competition 🏆🌟
