The Adelaide University Football Club (AUFC) is The World’s Greatest Football Club and is considered to be the largest and most successful amateur FC in Australia.

WE ARE HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL

The Blacks have an unsurpassed record in Australian amateur football history. 101 Premierships/IV Championships (including 28 in division 1) are a testament to that.

WE PROMOTE DIVERSITY

We are a proud part of the Adelaide University sporting community, however, membership is not confined to those studying at the University of Adelaide. All are eligible and all are welcome!

WE ARE A COMMUNITY

WE LIKE TO BE SOCIAL

“If winning is all there is, we want no part of it”, a phrase famously coined by AUFC living legend, Chocka Bloch. Chocka once also described the footy club as “a social club loosely based around football”.
