Nunawading City FC is an Australian semi-professional association football club based in Nunawading, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria. Founded in 1971, the club currently competes in the National Premier Leagues Victoria 1.
History
National Premier Leagues Victoria (2015-)
In the 2014 season, Nunawading finished in bottom place of the Victorian State League Division 2 South-East, amassing seven points in 22 games.[1]
Midway through 2014, Nunawading City youth player, Jake Brimmer (then Joey's captain) was scouted by Liverpool FC, Liverpool scout Barry Hunter spotted him playing for the Victorian NTC (National Training Centre) squad at Moreland in July 2013. But it was at Nunawading City, a club at which Ange Postecoglou had helped set up the junior structure, where Brimmer had developed.
In late 2014, it was confirmed that Nunawading City would be joining the NPL Victoria competition, and would enter the NPL Victoria 2 division for 2015, essentially the second tier of football in Victoria.[2] After 20 consecutive losses, City earned its first point in the NPL2 competition on 18 July 2015, in a 0-0 draw away from home against Whittlesea Ranges FC.[3] The point would prove to be the only point Nunawading earned that season, finishing the season in bottom place with a -95 goal difference.[4]
In May 2016, Nunawading City striker Emile Damey was selected to play for Liberia in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations.[5] After one draw and 38 losses since entering the NPL2 in 2015, Nunawading City got their first win when it defeated Murray United FC 3-1 at Mahoneys Reserve on 22 May 2016.[6]
