PEGS



Formed in 1968, Old Essendon Grammarians - renamed PEGS in 2012 - participated in a number of different competitions between then and 1984, including the VAFA (1970-71), Essendon District Football League (1972-82) and Footscray District Football League (1983). During this time the club developed a winning culture, as evidenced by its winning of two senior grade premierships, one in the EDFL’s C Grade in 1976, and the other in 1983 in the A3 Section of the FDFL.
