The Port Melbourne Sharks are an Australian football club from Port Melbourne, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The club was formed in 1968/69 by Greek immigrants; the club grew throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s playing in the lower leagues but were finally promoted to the Victorian Premier League in 1994. Over their tenure from 1994-2003 they won the minor premiership twice, but were unable to win the title.
Over the years the club developed and expanded its facilities, one of the best in the state. The club has amassed a number of junior squads and old boys’ teams and in recent years has focused on its women’s and sub junior teams. A number of its juniors went on and played overseas and the then National League and some still play today in the “A” League.
Port Melbourne SC is committed to the development of football and developing players of the future.
