Founded in 1892, the Collingwood Football Club is one of the most revered sporting clubs in Australia.
Boasting some of football’s biggest names, the Magpies have been at the forefront of the VFL/ AFL since the league’s inception. The club has claimed 14 premierships and competed in more finals series and Grand Finals than any other, while it holds a league record 1513 wins.
It’s not just on the field where Collingwood has made its mark on the competition. In the grandstands, the club’s passionate members and supporters turn out in force every weekend, inspiring their players in size and in voice.
Today’s Magpies are led by captain Scott Pendlebury as they charge on into a new era under coach Nathan Buckley.
In 2019, the club fields as many as seven teams across different sports, such as football, netball and wheelchair football. Led by senior figureheads Eddie McGuire (President) and Mark Anderson (CEO), Collingwood is based at the Holden Centre, located on the Yarra River and in the same sporting precinct as the MCG and the Melbourne Tennis Centre.
Prior to that, Collingwood was based at the famous Victoria Park between 1892 and 2004.
