Cairnlea FC Sports Club Inc. is a football (soccer) club based in Cairnlea, Victoria, Australia. The club was formerly known as the Albion Rovers Soccer Club which was formed by the amalgamation of Royal Park Soccer Club and Albion Rovers Soccer Club in 1982. Since this time the club has enjoyed success playing at the highest levels in Victorian football including finals campaigns in the Victorian Premier League (VPL), a host of Victorian State League titles and many League Cups. Currently the club's Senior Men team plays in the Victorian State League 1 N/W competition while the Senior Woman team play in the Victorian Women's Premier League.
History
Members of the Cyprus Turkish Association formed the Royal Park Soccer Club in 1969. The Club was formed by first and second generation Turkish Cypriots in Australia who felt the need to prove that they could complete in sports and wanted a chance to migrate into the Australian community. Royal Park Soccer Club was formed following lengthy negotiations between members of the Association Committee and keen sportsman; certain committee members argued that it would be more beneficial for the community to concentrate their efforts on other projects. The discussions concluded with the committee voting in favor of the establishment of a Soccer club. The association decided that sport and recreation was to encourage the young Turkish Cypriots to migrate into the Australian community.
A sum of $500 was allocated towards the establishment costs of the Soccer club. The money allocated went towards purchasing essentials such as soccer balls, netting for the goals and other accessories.
The first serious of soccer matches were played in Carlton, Victoria at Princess Park on the famous Ground Number 6. The initial matches were only friendly games against other nationality teams. A majority of the players who made up the Royal Park team came from the Cyprus Turkish Association. The team was also known to have a few skillful players of Albanian background. Royal Park joined the Victorian Amateur Soccer Federation playing in the lowest division in 1969. A one dollar fee per game was charged to the players to cover their insurance costs, and the team would sometimes travel as far as rural Morington to complete.
The following year Royal Park Soccer Club began to attract the interest of the new immigrants from Turkey. The club registered several immigrant players who had played professionally in the soccer leagues of Turkey hoping that the experienced players would improve the teams performance.
At the end of the season Royal Park was promoted much to the delight of the community. The level of community support for the team could be measured by the increased number of spectator cars that were parked around the ground, beeping horns, flashing lights and cheering on game day.
Years later the club merged with Albion Rovers Soccer Club and played out of Selwyn Park, Albion, Victoria in the Victorian Premier League for more then 10 years in front of thousand of people at home games. During their time at Selwyn Park the team would be known as Albion Rovers, Albion Turkgucu and Albion Redsox. Players such as Levent Osman, Ossie Latif, Ossie Fehmi, Ayhan Patsaman, Yasar Behich, Tamer Simsek, Mustafa Mustafa, Serhat Hulusi, Eddie Cetkin, Don MacLeod, Goran Georgieski, Jonathan Carter, Tyron James, Charlie Villani, Sertac Karayel, Paul Donnelly, Steve Douglas, Joe Spiteri, Zoran Markovski, Gunay Kuyucuogullari, Claude Lucchesi, Ernie Toth, Luciano Trani, John Grimaud, Les Carter, Enver Osman, Salih Sozer and Kevin Muscat all played for the Albion during their time at Selwyn Park.
In the late nineties the club was moved to McPherson Park in Melton, Victoria, which proved to be a tough time. Supporter base was radically down, the club would be known as Melton Reds and play in front of a handful of people. This would see the downfall of the club, as it would be relegated from the Victorian Premier League.
In early 2000 the club would temporally base itself out of the Sunshine George Cross home ground in Sunshine, Victoria and then move onto Bulla for 3 seasons they would also change their name to Albion Rovers. This proved to attract more loyal fans back to the club. In 2001 the club would be crowned Champions of State League 2 – North West. The same year Mustafa Mustafa would be crowned Victorian State League 2 Player of the Year. It was good times for the Rovers who closely missed out on promotion the previous season.
While the senior men team would base itself out of Bulla the juniors were based out of Lloyd Reserve in Albion. The club known as the Albion Junior Soccer Club was one of the first club in the state of Victoria to field girls into playing football. It was in 1999 when Kara Theodorou, Damala Mutluel and Tijen Hussein completed their first season in football. The move to give the young female footballers the chance paid off with the girls demonstrating the skills year in year out and going on to be selected in their respective Victorian teams. In 2001 Tijen Hussein, Damla Mutluel and Kara Theodorouall got selected for the Victorian Primary Schools Team furthermore Damla Mutluel went on to get selected to the Football Federation Victorian Team. While it was good time for the girls, it was more difficult time for the men. They would be relegated two leagues into State League 3 – North West.
The female success paved the way for other females to participate and encouraged the club to create our first female team in 2004. This was a challenging task as the girls were still 12-year’s old. The club entered the young girls into the Under-16s league and the girls were thrashed all year including an 18 nil thumbing in their first game to Sandringham. The humiliation would be forgotten the following year as the girls went on to win the Under 16B N/W Championship.
In 2006 the senior teams would move facilities yet again this time it would be closer to its more traditional supporter base. They temporary based themselves out of Green Gully Reserve, during this time under coach Ossie Fehmi, the club would miss out on promotion by one point. In 2007 the club would be awarded the facilities of Cairnlea Park in Cairnlea, Victoria following the assistance of Brimbank City Council and Mayor Natalie Suleyman. The new name of the club would be known as Cairnlea FC. It proved to be a successful season under the guidance of new coach Dusan Kaledzic the team would be promoted to State League 2 – North West. Players such as Salih Sozer, Erdem Koc, Sener Genc and Oguzhan Gurkan would prove to be the critical in the promotion.
In 2008 the club would move to its new home of Cairnlea Park. The same year the senior men would be relegated back to State League 3 – North West after a disappointing season. The success story would be the Senior Girls team. The girl’s team would emerge as the powerhouse of the western suburbs female football. They went onto to win various leagues and gain promotions in years 2009, 2010 and 2011 under the guidance of former player and 2012 Brimbank Coach of the Year, Mustafa Fehmi. The success paved the way for our team to complete in the Women’s Premier League of Victoria, the highest possible league any female team could participate in Victoria. The team is the only club in the western suburbs of Melbourne who currently participate in this league. They have also won the annual Brimbank Cup in years 2012, 2013 and 2014.
In 2013 the Senior Men won State-league 3 North-West championship in remarkable fashion including going 10 games unbeaten. On the final league game of the season Cairnlea FC travelled to Sunbury United FC who were in second place by goal difference. In third place was North Sunshine Eagles by 3 points but a better goal difference then Cairnlea FC and Sunbury United. The game between Carinlea FC and Sunbury United finished nil all. The golden boot winner for the league was Cairnlea FC’s Adem Alicevic with 18 goals and his runner-up was teammate Adamson Ajayi with 17. The two proved to be an exciting strike force throughout the season. Club captain Mustafa Mustafa was awarded Victorian State League 3 Player of the Year Award while fellow teammates Adamson Ajayi and Adem Alicevic finsihed in 3rd and 4th place respectively capping off a remarkable year. This was the first time in Cairnlea FC history and only the second time since our amalgamation that it had won a championship. It would also be the final season of club legend Salih Sozer, who followed the club around from home to home. The famous number 17 would call it quits from semi-professional football.
Currently our Senior Women play in the Womens Premier League and our Senior Men play in State League 1. This is incorporated with an excess of 350 junior players ranging from age 6 to 18. Today our club Cairnlea FC provides and caters for a strong and vibrant local community.
