History

The Geelong Amateur Football Club was formed in 1926 as a result of teachers and students from The Geelong College and The Geelong Grammar forming a football team to play in Victorian Amateur Football Association. Hence the green and light blue colors and the Pegasus Logo of the club.
They moved to their current home at Queens Park, Highton in 1957.
They started in the VAFA participating as high as A Grade before in 1983 the club decided to base itself in Geelong and joined the Geelong and District Football League. Playing in the V.A.F.A. meant travelling to Melbourne every fortnight, whereas joining the Geelong & District Football League meant that all games were played locally.
In 1985 they won the GDFL premiership. The club then briefly went up to the Geelong Football League but was unable to sustain itself there and moved back to the GDFL in 1989.
The club experienced a period of troubled times over the next few years and, after much soul searching and survival meetings, the club joined the Bellarine Football League and has remained since.
