[1] The club currently has a strong emphasis on the development of its junior players with a focus on the age groups running from Under 6s to Under 12s. [1]

The club has participated in senior Football Brisbane competition since 2007 and is expected to compete in the Brisbane Premier League for the first time in 2018. [2]

History

Centenary Stormers Football Club was formed in 2000 and has been registered with Football Brisbane since the beginning of the 2000 season. [1] The club first fielded a team in Football Brisbane competitions in 2007, starting in Metro League Division Five which was then the eighth tier of the FB structure. A second-place finish and Grand Final win the following season resulted in the club being promoted to Metro League Division Three. [2]

Centenary Stormers then achieved a further four promotions between 2011 and 2015, rising four divisions from Metro League 3 Blue to Capital League 1. During this period the club formed a partnership with former national representative Craig Moore and Viva Soccer in late 2012 to run a pilot coaching program to set sporting standards by which a junior player's performance can be measured, managed and accredited, as part of its drive to support all junior players. [3]

Centenary Stormers FC won its first premiership, finishing top of the table in Capital League 3 in 2014. [4]

In 2016, Centenary Stormers was relegated for the first time in their history, appearing safe in Capital League 1 with three rounds to go, but then being overtaken by a late four match winning run by Mount Gravatt. [5] Centenary Stormers bounced back by winning the 2017 Capital League 2 premiership and are expected to compete in the Brisbane Premier League for the first time in 2018 due to a restructure of senior men's competitions by Football Brisbane.
