Built On community

The steering Committee had achieved its goal and the nominated Office Bearers were charged with the responsibility of incorporating the club as well as the significant challenge of recruiting players. With further assistance from the steering committee, these objectives were met and twelve other players were recruited, providing the Club with sixteen U11 players for the 1992 season. In an effort to select an appropriate club emblem all players were asked to provide a drawing of a suitable emblem with the winner being selected by players and receiving an autographed Brisbane Bears football which was awarded to Chris Flanagan for producing a drawing of a Falcon.

Our home ground for the 1992 season was the Ferny Grove High School, McGinn Road, Ferny Grove and in June 1993 the Club secured a winter tenancy with the Brisbane City Council (BCC) to conduct our football activities on the redeveloped Ferny Grove Tip site on the corner of Samford Road and Upper Kedron Road, Ferny Grove. Activities continued there until 13th August 1994 when some unearthed medical waste was discovered on the perimeter of the ground and in the interests of Health & Safety the Club abandoned the site to allow remedial works to be carried out by by BCC. For the next 2 years (1995 and 1996) the Club used the Ferny Grove Primary School as its home ground due to controversy surrounding the responsibility of remedial works and delays. Following extensive recapping and seeding the Club returned to the current ground in 1997. In that year the Ferny Grove Falcons registered 95 players with one U8 team, two U9s, one U11 team, one U13 & one U15 team. With passionate Committee members, coaching and support staff and a strong focus on developing basic skills through the Auskick program, the Club has continued to thrive since.

The clubhouse was developed and opened in 2002, it is still leased predominantly by the Arana Bridge Club and the Falcons sub-lease the old change rooms and canteen area. In 2015 the club formed a Seniors side and they have been competing in Div 4 on a Friday night since that time.

​

In recent years the Seniors have made it to three finals series, narrowly missing out on the 2025 season finals.

In 2020 the new changerooms and umpire rooms were launched with an additional community room space.  The Falcons have the head lease on these facilities and offer them to our cricket and netball community to use when required.

In 2021 the club formed it’s first girls team, fielding a team in the Girls U11 comp, this extended to two girls teams in 2022.

In 2022 the Ferny Grove Falcons also fielded their inaugural Masters team, and in 2023 fielded their inaugural Women’s Masters team.
