| Description : |
The Port Augusta Football Association was formed in 1901, and two teams were established - the Albions and the Excelsiors. Later in 1901 the two teams combined to become the one Port Augusta Football Club. For the next 11 years the club played in competition with other towns in the district. In 1912, The Port Augusta Football Association decided to establish three local teams. These teams were Central Augusta Football Club and South Augusta in 1912, and North Augusta Football Club. North Augusta disbanded at the end of 1915 after winning the last premiership before the competition ceased due to World War I. The team they defeated in the final, West Augusta, was formed in April 1915. West, South and Central have been the staple clubs of the Port Augusta football scene to the present. |
