Geelong had a strong second half of the State League 2 North-West season in 2015 after the mid-season appointment of former West Ham Utd and Sydney FC player Stevie Laurie who promptly brought in Scottish central defender Marc McCafferty, but the poor first couple of months meant that the ambitious outfit had to settle for 6th place.

[8] Geelong SC completed its first ever season of Football Victoria State League One with a creditable 2nd-place finish narrowly missing out on promotion to NPL.

The much publicised and controversial signings of Matt Townley and Matthew Thorne from rivals North Geelong Warriors were a signal of the clubs intent.

The arrival of several international player including Dan Hattersley, Andrew Fitzgerald and Sam Mason-Smith (England), Gonzalo Aguero (Spain), Takanori Nishimoto (Japan), Raymond Gunemba (PNG), Scott Robson, Aaron Spain and Zane Sole (all NZ) further strengthened the squad already boasting names such as Louis Bentley, Izzy Erdogan, Dulie Delic, Daniel Kuczynski (CAN), Harry Hillary-Jenkins, Chris Balaburova, Josh Talev and Vedran Stojanovic.

The untimely resignation of Head Coach Kristian Bright three rounds into the season and a points deduction for an administrative blunder put the club behind the eight ball early in the promotion plight.

A bad mid-season run and a fast finishing Preston Lions outfit eventually culminated in a Round 21 'grand final' type decider.

With world class goals from Sam Mason-Smith and Matt Townley Geelong SC secured a historic 2–0 victory against our far more fancied sister-club Preston Lions at their famous B.T.

Our debut NPL season in 2019 saw a major squad rebuild with the appointment of former Brunswick City Head Coach George Karkaletsis taking the reins.

The arrival of experienced NPL players Melvin Beckett, Adamson Agayi and Michael Trigger, as well as Romanian defender Bogdan Nicolescu from Politecnica Timisoara.
