History

On field

The football club was established under the name of Flemington Floridia Soccer Club in October 1986 as the sporting arm of the Floridia Social Club. The club's inaugural home venue was the parkland at the foot of the Flemington commission housing on Flemington Road.[5] The club debuted Victorian state league football in 1993, participating in the Provisional League Division Three, now formally recognized as Victoria's eighth tier.[6] The club's senior squad achieved promotion twice in 2005[7] and in 2008[8] into the Victorian State League Division 4 where it competes today. The Falcons were runner's up in 2019 also but were not promoted to Victorian State League Division 3.[9] Prior to the last match of the season against second placed Heidelberg Eagles, the Falcons only had to draw at a minimum to ensure its first premiership, and promotion, but were defeated 5–0.[10]

Off field

The club is led by president Frank Pizzo[11] who has earned recognition for the club from Football Victoria for numerous workings. In 2008, with support from the Darebin Council, Pizzo established the club's 'All Abilities' program for players with disabilities in weekly competitive competitions.[12] In 2013, Football Victoria awarded Pizzo with the federations' annual volunteer of the year award for his & the club's efforts with the 'all abilities' program.[13] Most recently the club embarked on starting a junior female program and in season 2021, they boast four all girls teams and a female community of over 80 people.
