Traralgon Football Club

The Traralgon Football Netball Club, nicknamed the Maroons, is an Australian rules football and netball club based in the regional Victorian city of Traralgon.

Traralgon was formed in 1883 and has competed in the Gippsland League almost continuously since 1954. The club was briefly a member of the Victorian Football League (VFL) between 1996 and 1997, but withdrew after winning only four games in its two seasons.

The first published football match was a game in Traralgon against Warragul in 1883, resulting in a win to Traralgon.

Mr. H West won the club's Best All-Round player in 1884 with 12 votes.

In 1885, Traralgon hosted Essendon Football Club in a game, but were soundly beaten.

Traralgon once again hosted Essendon in 1886, but this time Traralgon (8.12 - 60) defeated Essendon (3.5 - 23).

In 1890, Traralgon FC's home ground was the Recreation Reserve.

After being in recess in 1894, the "new"club was formed in May, 1895, with the club adopting the colours of red and white.
