}}Newtown & Chilwell Sporting Club is an Australian rules football club that competes in the Geelong Football League in Victoria, Australia. They play their home games at Elderslie Reserve.[1]

Early formations

Chilwell Football Club (formed 1874) and Newtown Football Club (formed 1874/1875) were affiliated with the following leagues:

  • Geelong District Football Association (GDFA), 1879–1918
  • Geelong District Football League (GDFL), 1919–1921
  • Geelong Junior Football Association (GJFA), 1922–1932
  • Geelong District Football League (GDFL), 1933

Merger

In 1933 the Newtown Football Club and the Chilwell Football Club merged to form the Newtown & Chilwell Football Club. The merger of two of Geelong's oldest clubs was because Newtown had difficulty getting players so they looked to their neighboring club, Chilwell. The club also has a historical link to the Barwon Football Club, which at its peak in the mid-1870s was one of the strongest clubs in Victoria, before it merged into Chilwell in 1879.[2]

Geelong Football League

When the league was formed in 1979 the Eagles were one of the 10 clubs that broke away from the Geelong & District Football League.[3] The city and country clubs of the old GDFL were divided into the major league competition of the GFL and the minor league GDFL.
