THE CLUB
The Blackfriars Old Scholars Football Club (BOSFC) was founded in 2005 and entered the 2006 season in the South Australian Amateur Football League (SAAFL), now known as the Adelaide Footy League.
The Club was formed by a dedicated and committed group of Blackfriars Priory Old Scholars, through their enormous generosity along with the Blackfriars Priory School, the BOSFC Hounds were born. A home ground and club base was established at Park 2 in North Adelaide (colloquially know as St Dom’s) where we remain thanks to the continuing support of the Blackfriars Priory School.
In 2019 a senior Women’s team was introduced to the Adelaide Footy League, the first all-boys school to do so. After Covid lockdowns of 2020, we were also able to introduce a men’s C grade into the competition and have laid the groundwork for a Women’s Reserves side soon.
Since its inception in 2006, BOSFC have enjoyed great success on and off the field. In the clubs inaugural season the A grade won the Division 7 Premiership, and then went ‘back-to-back’ by winning the Division 6 Premiership in 2007. In 2014 BOSFC A grade went on again to win the Division 6 Premiership. In 2019, the Women were promoted a few rounds into the season to Division 4, where they played off in a Preliminary final. Followed by another promotion in 2020 and a Grand Final appearance in Division 3, they went the entire 2021 season undefeated winning the clubs 4th flag.
BOSFC is proud to have developed a strong and inclusive environment, welcoming any player, volunteer or supporter (Old Scholars and non-Old Scholars alike). The club continues to be built on a foundation of generosity, commitment, and local support.
