Our club will CELEBRATE its 50th
anniversary in 2024..!!!
Fifty years is a great milestone for any
organisation, especially one of volunteers. We want to acknowledge the
Parramatta City Football Club for its pending 50th anniversary in 2024. This
great and iconic club, which we are all very proud to represent started in 1974
as Greek based football (soccer) club in Parramatta.
The organisation faced
an abundance of challenges in the early years, one of which was the
language barriers, the lack of infrastructure in the Parramatta precinct,
operating under a strict budget and committed volunteers. But the dedication of
a few good men and women saw the club nurture and grow to meet the needs of our
local community and footballing family.
As with any growth, success quickly followed
and the club became a major contributor to game and our community, with
multiple teams in State League and Grassroots local competitions. Like many
clubs in the seventies, the football club was symbolic of community care and a
place of gathering for young men, boys and girls who came from, in some cases,
challenged social backgrounds and conditions.
Nowadays, the club operates with a small
number of teams with the next generation of dedicated volunteers. Research
tells us , we are one of 4 Greek rooted clubs still playing grassroots football
in Sydney, and the oldest. (Earlwood Wanderers, Hurstville City Minatours and
only recently, Cooks River FC)
Almost fifty years ago the goals of the
(Parramatta Hellas, Western Districts Hellas, Parramatta City Sporting Club)
Parramatta City Football Club was to provide harmonious social and footballing
activities for its players, members and guests, and fostering the aims and
objectives of the football clubs Constitution and assist local sporting groups,
schools and charities.
These objectives remain the same today and,
amazingly, the Parramatta City Football Club continues to support these groups
over almost five decades. Everyone involved is truly the heart and soul of the
Parramatta City family and community. It provided a life time of memories,
numerous long term family relationships along with a sisterhood and brotherhood
with a zest for life. We extend our gratitude to our life members (past and
present), our supporters and the many volunteers that contributed to the
continuity of the clubs ongoing existence.
To life members, past men and women, both
current and previous committee members, members and long-term members, we say
thank you on behalf of the Parramatta City family and community.
It is for that reason that we place on record a pending happy 50th for Parramatta City Football Club Inc.
Make
absolutely no mistake, 50 years of voluntarily servicing the
community is a major achievement.!
ITS GOING TO BE A MASSIVE YEAR.
"When you start playing and supporting a football club, you don't necessarily play or support it because of
the trophies, or history, you play or support it because you found yourself somewhere there, you found a
place where you belong"
On the
30th of Sept the club held a re-union game to celebrate the club’s
rich history and how wonderfully football can bring a community together. This
was made possible with a grant by Dr Andrew Charlton’s office which
allowed the club to buy full size goals to facilitate the event and hopefully
benefit the greater community to allow games to be played on fields in the off season,
trial matches and host charity events etc. Many payers returned to the field on
that day and we saw many new people interest in joining the club.
