In 1912, the club moved to Westerfolds Park (previously known as Smith's Paddock) and in the 1922 was a founding member of the Diamond Valley Football League.
After a stint playing at the Fitzsimons' property, the club moved to its current location at Porter Street Reserve in the early 1930s, at the same time adopting the famous maroon and white colours.
Templestowe continued in the DVFL with mixed results until 1990 when the club's future was in grave doubt as it battled for survival both on and off the field.
At the other end of the scale, Templestowe Park Primary School Auskick were looking for a junior football club for their youngsters that would encourage fair play and had a strong family orientation.
It was from these linkages that Templestowe embarked on a new phase of its history in establishing a pathway program that linked three independent clubs that will ensure that kids and young adults have a lifelong relationship to football.
