OUR CLUB
History
Founded in 1970, Para Hills East Soccer Club initially competed in the Elizabeth and Districts Junior Soccer Association (EDJSA) with Under 8, Under 10, and Under 11 teams. The club entered its first senior team in Division 7 of the South Australian Amateur Soccer League (SAASL) in 1978 and quickly advanced through the divisions. By 1990, the club reached the Sunday Premier League, the highest level of amateur soccer in South Australia.
The senior team won the Sunday Premier League in 1992 and secured consecutive titles in 1993 and 1994. Their fourth Premier League title came in 2003. In 2005, the club introduced its first women's team in the Football SA (FSA) Community League, significantly contributing to the club's growth.
The juniors won the Elizabeth Districts Dennis Moore Trophy in 2016 and 2022, awarded for excellence in organisation, professionalism, and contributions to football. Recently, the Premier A Division won the 2023 Challenge Cup.
In 2024, the club unified its junior and senior squads under one entity, Para Hills East Soccer Club. The club also achieved 2-star Club Changer status through Football Australia's Club Development Program.
