The club was established in 1923 by alumni of Jesuit school Xavier College in Kew.

The club is one of the most successful in the Victorian Amateur Football Association, having won 14 VAFA Premier Section flags, with its first in 1981.

The OXFC currently fields nine teams in the VAFA competition (seven men's, two women's).

The team entered to the Metropolitan Amateur Football Association where it started to compete.
