HistoryFoundationPort Kembla FC was founded in 1966 by a group of Italian migrants in the Marina coffee lounge in Warrawong. Soon they began playing matches against a group of players from the Italo coffee lounge in neighbouing Port Kembla with the losers having to pay for the winners dinner. Eventually both sides got together and decided it would be a better idea to form a single club and enter it into a local competition.[1] With the majority of the players being of Italian heritage and background, they decided to call the club Warrawong Azzurri however this was unsuccessful as the head football body Soccer Australia were trying to eliminate ethnic names for football clubs in the aim of reducing tensions between rival ethnic backgrounds. A further application of Lake Heights Blues was similarly rejected on the same grounds. However the president of former Port Kembla club Port Kembla Dunubia approached the group and inquired if they were interested in taking Danubia's spot in the local competition. Both parties agreed, and having settled upon the name of Port Kembla FC the club was born.[2] Illawarra Premier LeaguePort Kembla initially struggled to find a permanent home ground for the first couple of decades, playing in local parks until 1980 when they received permission to build a ground in nearby Primbee – Wetherall Park -, which is their home ground still today.[1] Success would not come easily, not quickly for Port Kembla with the club not winning their first silverware in the Illawarra Premier League until 1995 when they won both the Premiership and Grand final, 29 years after their foundation. After winning the 1996 grand final, they wouldn't see further success until the flood gates literally opened post-2000, when they finished first 4 years in a row from 2000–2004, as well as backing up and winning the grand final in 2000, 2003, and 2004. They won the premiership against in 2010, and won both the premiership and grand final in 2013.[3] Honours
