100 YEARS OF EASTLAKE FOOTBALL CLUB
100 years of us.
Eastlake Football Club is celebrating a momentous milestone in 2026 in the form of its Centenary, branding it 100 years of us.
On 22 May 1926, Eastlake Football Club took to the field for the very first time, wearing white jumpers with a red sash. In late 1990 a merger occurred, bringing together Eastlake and Manuka Football Clubs under a new brand and colours. For 5 years, Southern District played in the royal blue jumpers with two white sashes before reverting back to the Manuka colours and Eastlake Demons we see today.
The Eastlake Football Club proudly presents a special Centenary logo to be used across 2026 that reflects and represents the Eastlake Football Club, Manuka Football Club and Southern District over the 100 year history.
On Saturday 20th June 2026 a Gala Dinner will be held at the Realm Hotel to celebrate the Eastlake Football Club 100 years of us.

The Federal Territory Australian Rules Football League was just two years old when the Eastlake Football Club first emerged on the scene in 1926. The club comprised chiefly of local tradesmen, many of whom had moved to Canberra from the southern states.
