Formed in 1990, the Toronto Rebels are one of the oldest and most accomplished teams in Canadian Australian Football.

That year the Ontario Australian Football league doubled in size with the addition of the Scarborough Rebels and the North York Hawks.

The Scarborough Rebels defeated the Mississauga Mustangs in a thrilling match to win their first Conacher Cup.

The Rebels won their second straight Premiership defeating the heavily favoured Toronto Panthers.

Two of Toronto's dailies and local radio stations carried the league's scores and several stories.

After many meetings to discuss the future of the league the remaining few players joined the Hawks and a few other teams.

The Toronto Eagles defeated the Lawrence Park Rebels for their third straight Conacher Cup.

The Eagles came back from a four-goal deficit at the half to win by a single behind at the final siren.

In 2005 the newly renamed Lakeshore Rebels made the grand final only to lose to the Downtown Dingos.
