History

Club formed in 1972 as the Beverley Hills Football Club and affiliated in the VAFA. In 1982 the club transferred to the Eastern Districts Football League. In 1989 the club altered its name to Doncaster East.

As at the end of the 1992 season the Eastern Suburban Churches FA moved into recess, Doncaster East was able to absorb the now in recess Wattle Park FC and with the influx of its players allowed the club to win the 1993 fourth division grand final.

The seniors claimed their second flag in 2007 by winning the division three grand final.
