Grand Finals
Game records

Formed in 1906, Elsternwick competed for a time, without success, in the Federal Football League, before crossing to the Metropolitan Amateur Football Association, precursor of today’s Victorian Amateur Football Association, in 1914. The club’s endorsement of the MAFA’s ideals had, in fact, been publicly affirmed two years earlier, when it had added the word ‘amateur’ to its official name.
