They were initially based in the Melbourne suburb of Caulfield and wore a blue and white guernsey but now call Koornang Park in Carnegie home.
In the early nineties, with the imminent league merger and the waning of St Kevins as a football power, the club decided to look to Gardenvale for a merger so as to gain access to the main oval at Princes Park and to strengthen its player base.
They had played all their football at Princes Park, mainly where the soccer currently resides.
In 1992, the merged club successfully established itself at Princes Park; the new club found immediate success by winning a reserves premiership in 1993 and winning both seniors and reserves premierships in 1994 in the first division.

Its association with the junior club which caused St Kevins' move to Koornang Park in 1980 has been successful and many current senior players have come from their ranks.
