History

In 1947 a group of young people met at the back of the Hampton Methodist Hall to see if they could form a football Club. Thereby the "Hampton Methodist Football Club" was formed that same year, debuting in the Melbourne Methodist League until it went into recess in 1951. [1]

The club reformed in 1959, joining Eastern Suburban Protestant FA, where they won the C grade premiership. Promoted into B grade the club won the flag in 1961 and were again elevated to A grade.

In 1976 the club changed its name to "Hampton United" and then again in 2000 to just Hampton.
