History

The Geelong Amateur Football Club was formed in 1926 as a result of teachers and students from The Geelong College and Geelong Grammar forming a football team to play in the Victorian Amateur Football Association. As such, it uses the green and light blue colours, plus the Pegasus logo of The Geelong College.
They moved to their current home at Queens Park, Highton, in 1957.
They started in the VAFA, participating as high as A Grade before in 1983 the club decided to base itself in Geelong and joined the Geelong and District Football League. Playing in the VAFA meant travelling to Melbourne every fortnight, whereas joining the Geelong & District Football League meant that all games were played locally.
In 1985, they won the GDFL premiership. The club then briefly went up to the Geelong Football League but was unable to sustain itself there and moved back to the GDFL in 1989.
The club experienced a period of troubled times over the next few years and, after much soul-searching and survival meetings, in 1995 the club joined the Bellarine Football League and has remained there since, winning Senior Football Premierships in 2004, 2008, 2014, 2015 & 2016.
