About Eltham Football Club

Origins and Founding

Eltham Football Club, known as the Panthers, was officially formed in 1907 when Police Constable "Ike" Stephens convened a meeting to provide entertainment and an outlet for young men in the Eltham district. The club had been playing informal social matches in the area since around 1904 against neighbouring sides at Kangaroo Ground, Diamond Creek, and Greensborough. The Panthers currently compete in Division 2 of the Northern Football Netball League (NFNL), based at Eltham Central Park and Susan Street Oval in Eltham, approximately 23 kilometres north-east of Melbourne's CBD.

Club History

The Panthers have a rich competition history spanning more than a century. In Division 1, the club won premierships in 1930, 1932, 1949, 1953, 1969, and 1970. A golden era from 1969 to 1974 produced four premierships in six seasons. The club has also been a consistent force at Second Division level, with flags in 1982, 1989, 1995, 1997, 2000, 2002, and most recently in 2023 when the Panthers defeated Diamond Creek by 41 points at Preston City Oval. That 2023 premiership, under coach Tim Bongetti, erased the pain of a grand final defeat the previous year and was celebrated as one of the club's most memorable recent achievements. Despite a pattern of oscillating between divisions, the Panthers have maintained a competitive presence in NFNL football across all eras.

Home Ground

The Panthers play at Eltham Central Park and Susan Street Oval, both located in Eltham. Eltham Central Park has been the club's primary competition venue through much of its modern history, and has hosted grand finals for the NFNL during its 100-year history. The Panthers played at Eltham Park in the league's early decades before transitioning to the current ground configuration.

Community and Programs

Eltham FC fields senior men's and reserves teams in the NFNL, and has historically run a strong junior and youth program within the Diamond Valley and Northern Football associations. The club's women's program has also grown as part of the NFNL Women's competition. The Panthers draw their supporter base from across Eltham and surrounding communities including Diamond Creek, Greensborough, Kangaroo Ground, and Panton Hill, making them a central institution in the outer north-eastern Melbourne footy community.

Eltham

Eltham is a suburb of Melbourne, located approximately 23 kilometres north-east of the CBD in the City of Nillumbik. Known for its distinctive bush character, heritage mud-brick homes, and artist community, Eltham sits on the banks of the Diamond Creek and the Yarra River, bordered by the Eltham Lower Park and Yarra Flats parkland. With a population of around 17,000 people, Eltham is one of Melbourne's most culturally distinctive suburbs, known for supporting the arts, sustainable living, and a strong sense of community identity. The Eltham area is famous as the home of notable Australian artists and the Heide Circle, and draws visitors from across Melbourne for its galleries, gardens, and riverside walking tracks.

The Panthers compete in the Northern Football Netball League and call Eltham Central Park home. Visit the club at elthamfc.com.au, follow them on Facebook, or on Instagram.

  • Footy Banner Information

    📄 Material & Construction

    • Premium Coated Paper (1.6 m high) printed with permanent, waterproof inks—won’t run or fade, even in wet weather.

    • Eco-friendly & Recyclable: All banners are fully recyclable when the celebration is over.

    • Durable weatherproof sports banners printed on heavy-duty coated paper - these banners are not made of crepe paper.

    🔧 Preparation & Run-Through Setup - Expert instructions for break-through milestone banners.

    • Rigging Your Banner

      • Tape broomsticks or PVC pipe to each edge to keep the banner taut.

      • This creates a professional “run-through” presentation for game-day moments.

    • Creating the Break-Through Slits

      • Vertical Slits: Cut small slits (20–30 cm long) in the centre—this engineered weak spot ensures a clean break when players burst through.

      • Wind-Proof Technique: On windy or rainy days, make multiple smaller slits so the banner doesn’t tear prematurely.

    💡 Tips & Tricks

    • Single Weak Spot: Some players cut only one slit to save and display the torn banner—repair later with clear tape on the reverse.

    • Logo Preservation: Position your slit to one side of the mascot or logo so your club’s emblem stays intact and can be retained afterwards for display.

  • Return and Refund Policy

    As each banner is custom made, once ordered, we cannot return them.

    Please check the details you submit for printing carefully, as we will make the banner using the exact spelling and information you provide.
