About us
Essendon FC - "The Bombers" - are a professional sporting team in the Australian Football League.

As home to 5 sporting teams, we run our AFL men's and women's programs, VFL women's and men's programs, and a wheelchair football team.

But we're more than the game.

Not only do we exist to win premierships, we aim to give back to our loyal membership base, and importantly, our community.

We understand and take seriously the impact we have on social outcomes and work tirelessly to ensure these are positive, from our partnership with The Long Walk, to our indigenous pathway programs.

To do this, we have strong commercial partnerships and innovate with non-traditional ventures, such as our Essendon Education Academy and EFC Investment Fund, so that we can deliver world class events, give back to our fans, run community programs and ultimately, strive toward our next premiership.
