The Albion Football Club is an Australian rules football club which has competed in the Western Region Football League (WRFL) since 1961. [2] They are based in the Melbourne suburb of Albion.
When Sunshine FC were admitted to the VFA in 1959, the club decided not to support a third open age team in the FDFL. The players from this Sunshine thirds were worried about getting a game by the 1961 season. As Albion was a growth suburb at the time it was decided to create a football club for the suburb so the Albion Football Club was founded.
