History

Nerimbera is one of the oldest football clubs in Australia, being founded in 1910.[2]

The club was devastated by Cyclone Marcia in 2015 where their clubhouse was destroyed. The roof was lifted off which meant the team could not host home games at their home venue at Pilbeam Park.[3]

The team in recent years has been a very young squad with plenty of potential. Many coming from the winning u/16 grand final team of 2017, who won against bluebirds 4–1.[4] Nerimbera finished last in 2017 and 2018.
