Northern AFC

Founded in 1888 Northern FC is the oldest continually operating football club in the Southern Hemisphere.

Fiercely proud of its history, Northern is one of the more successful teams in Dunedin with eight Chatham Cup Final appearances.

19 Northern FC players have represented New Zealand winning full international caps as "All Whites".

In response to low player numbers in 1972 the Senior club joined with Maori Hill FC in the interests of football in the Northern end of Dunedin, and so the North End United club was formed, however at junior level, both Maori Hill and Northern maintained their individual identities.

Men's Southern Premiership, and Men's Southern Division One Fletcher Cup Following a number of seasons where the club achieved limited success, and in particular some very heavy defeats in 2020, changes were made to the coaching and support staff ahead of the 2021 season.

Again, young promising local players were recruited to the club, and were provided with positive environment to train, play and develop.
