Coburg Districts Football Club continues to offer participation opportunities for players from Auskick through to Senior football.
Moreland City Council allocated $624,950 in its 2019/20 capital works budget towards our change room building and the construction now means we have accessible change rooms for Men, Women and Junior participants and umpires.
Over the past few years our club has expanded the playing opportunities through the establishment of women’s and youth girls’ teams.
The sparkling new change facilities compliment our new floodlights, which have also been installed.
