A community football club in the Eastern Suburbs of Auckland, based at the Madill's Farm clubrooms on Melanesia Road and Sage Road, St Heliers. The club describes itself as New Zealand's largest amateur football club, with over 2,000 playing members, and says it is growing quickly. It runs coaching programmes and playing options for all levels and abilities, with junior, youth, senior and women's social teams. Information on games, training and fees is on each grade's page. The club is still mostly run by volunteers, and it employs administration staff, a finance manager and coaches who work from the clubrooms. The shop at the clubrooms takes online orders, and in term one it opens on Monday and Friday afternoons from 4 pm to 6 pm. The club's newsletter goes out weekly in winter and monthly in summer.
