Hamilton Kangaroos Football Netball Club

The Hamilton Kangaroos FNC formed by merging the Hamilton Football Club and the Hamilton Imperials Football Club on 17th October 2012. After almost 50 years as fierce rivals, the Magpies and Imperials opted to merge after the recommendation was made in the Southern Border Review and now compete in the Hampden Football Netball League.

Club officials on October 19th 2012 announced members of former clubs Hamilton and Hamilton Imperials voted for the name at an historic meeting this week.

The members had the options of Hamilton and Hamilton United for the club’s name and Kangaroos, Power or Hawks as its mascot.
