Wikipedia - Carlton Football Club
The Carlton Football Club, nicknamed the Blues, is a professional Australian rules football club that competes in the Australian Football League (AFL), the sport's top professional competition.
Founded in 1864, in Carlton, an inner suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Carlton quickly became a dominant club in early Australian rules football competitions, and was a foundation member of the Victorian Football Association (VFA), winning the inaugural premiership in 1877. In 1896, Carlton joined the breakaway Victorian Football League (since renamed the AFL), and alongside rivals Collingwood, Essendon, and Richmond, is regarded as one of the league's historical "Big Four" clubs, having won sixteen VFL/AFL premierships, equal with Collingwood and Essendon as the most of any AFL club.
Carlton's headquarters and training facilities are located in Carlton North at Princes Park, its traditional home ground, and it currently plays its home matches at Docklands Stadium and the Melbourne Cricket Ground. In 2017, Carlton fielded a team in the inaugural season of AFL Women's, its best result thus far being a Grand Final loss in 2019. Carlton also has reserves sides in the Victorian Football League and VFL Women's.
History
History
Carlton was a key cog in the establishment of Women's football in the state of Victoria. In August 1933 the club hosted the first ever VFL sanctioned match between women's teams, with sides representing Carlton and Richmond. Though Richmond's side was not associated directly with the VFL club of the same name, the Carlton side was picked and trained by the club with VFL players Mickey Crisp and Ray Brew as coaches. The match, played at Carlton's home Princes Park drew an estimated crowd of 10,000 and raised funds as part of a VFL bye-week carnival for The Royal Melbourne Hospital.
The club next fielded a women's team more than a decade later when it competed in a 1947 charity exhibition series raising funds in support of food shortages in post-war Commonwealth countries. The club's team played multiple matches in multiple series that season including a match against Footscray in July and a subsequent series against Hawthorn, South Melbourne, St Kilda and Footscray in August 1947.
The Carlton Women's team was established in 2017, following the introduction of the AFL Women's competition. Since its inception, the team has quickly established itself as a force to be reckoned with in the league, consistently performing at a high level.
The team's colors are navy blue and white, which are also the traditional colors of the Carlton Football Club. The team's logo features a stylized navy blue "C" with a white outline, representing the club's strong identity and heritage.
The Carlton Women's team boasts a talented roster of players, including some of the best female footballers in the country. The team is known for its strong and aggressive playing style, characterized by fast-paced ball movement, skillful kicking, and fierce tackling.
The team's home ground is the iconic Ikon Park, located in the inner suburb of Carlton. The stadium has a rich history in Australian Rules football and provides a fantastic atmosphere for fans to support their team.
Off the field, the Carlton Women's team is actively involved in community initiatives and strives to promote gender equality and inclusivity in sport. The team's players are role models for aspiring female athletes and are passionate about inspiring the next generation of footballers.
Overall, the Carlton Women's team is a formidable force in the AFL Women's competition, with a rich history, a talented roster, and a commitment to making a positive impact both on and off the field.
