The Albanvale Football Club was formed in 1978 by a group of interested parents and youths from the fast-growing new community situated in the corridor between St. Albans and Deer Park, who identified a need to create sporting opportunities for the young people of the area.
The Club is competitive at all levels with a number of topship victories at different levels and numerous finals appearances by all teams. The Committee's dedication to presenting a professional and business-like approach to the running of the Club has been recognised by the Western Region Football League through a number of efficiency awards and the 1998 Administrator of the Year Award.
