A brief history of Padstow United

The Padstow United Sports Club was formed some 59 years ago as a break away from the then Padstow Pirates.

The club’s home is Playford Park and in those early days the facilities were a little primitive. Many a story is told of the Canteen being run out of a tent and little hands trying to access drinks from under the tent flaps. Playford, in those days was a “gravel pit” with a lot of skin left on the barren surface.

The club has always been a family orientated one which encourages participation of all. The club steadily grew to the extent that several years ago an extension was planned and completed in 2000. We now have a large and roomy clubhouse with a modern kitchen, something we are all proud of.

On the field the club is a force in the Bankstown District Amateur Football Association and has in the past had many successful seasons.
