After many years of competing and underage sides only, in 1979 the club fielded a side in the open age competition for the first time.
2003 - North Sunshine FC won the Div 2 grand final elevating it to Div 1.
The club recently broke a 73-game losing streak in 2013
2014 saw the start of the new era for the club. With a new coach and many new players the club rewarded its supporters by got itself off the bottom of the ladder for the first time in 6 years. Playing in the newly formed 3rd Division it not only beat Tarneit FC to take it off the bottom but played competitive, hard football against many of the other Div 3 teams.
At 2014 AGM held at the end of the season saw 7 new members join the committee to give it a full complement of 10 to re-invigorate the club and prepare it for 2015 and beyond.
Expectations are high for 2015 with current player improvement and recruiting going well.
New players and supporters are welcome at the club (but mercenaries need not apply) were building the club up again from the ground up and welcoming good people to join us. http://www.foxsportspulse.com/club_info.cgi?c=1-25-8679-0-0&sID=5053
