Hoppers Crossing SC
Hoppers Crossing SC is a football (soccer) club based in Hoppers Crossing, Victoria, Australia. The club was formerly known as the Mossfiel Rangers Soccer Club which was formed by club founders Ken Slack, Ray Wilkinson, Stan Walkden and Ron Tutchell in 1971.
In 1991, the club changed its name to gain a closer affiliation with the quickly growing Hoppers Crossing area. Currently the club's senior men's team play in the Victorian State League Division 2 and women's teams play in the Victorian State League Division 1 North-West competition.
Mossfiel Rangers Soccer club was formed in 1971 by Ken Slack, Ray Wilkinson, Stan Walkden and Ron Tutchell and only consisted of one Under 10 and one Under 11 boys team. The home ground was based on the site where the Karobran kindergarten now resides. The land was provided by shearer H.L. Baden Powell
In 1976, Mossfiel Rangers moved to Mossfiel Reserve, where they stayed until 2005 before moving to new facilities at Grange Reserve under the Hoppers Crossing Soccer Club name.
Between 1976 and 1978, senior football was played with teams entered into the District League West division. From 1979 to 1981, the senior teams played in the Amateur Leagues before moving into the Victorian Soccer Federations Provisional League 4.
In 1983, the club achieved its first promotion in its history by finishing in second place of Provisional League Div 4, followed by another successful year in 1987 – again finishing second in Provisional League 2.
1990 would see the club relegated for the first time in its history by finishing 14th in Provisional League 2 – where it would stay until the club's first senior championship was won in 1999. The 2nd club championship was won in 2001 which saw the club promoted into the Victorian Soccer Federations State League structure – only to last until 2004 where it was again relegated to the Provisional Leagues.
2012 saw the beginning of the club's most successful era, with the senior team winning championships in 2012 (Provisional League 2), 2014 State League 4 West and 2015 State League 3 North-West and finishing second in the 2017 State League 2 North-West competition. Hoppers Crossing were unable to hold their place in State League 1 NW in 2018, the first time in the club's history they had played in the state's third tier, finishing in second-bottom place.
