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 team's colors are navy blue and white, and their emblem features a navy blue monogram "CFC" on a white background. Carlton's home ground is the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), where they have played numerous memorable matches and grand finals.
Known for their rich history and passionate fan base, Carlton has won a total of 16 AFL/VFL premierships, making them one of the most successful clubs in the league. Their most recent premiership victory came in 1995, and they have also been runners-up on numerous occasions.
Carlton has produced some of the game's greatest players, including legends such as John Nicholls, Stephen Kernahan, and Chris Judd. The team has a strong emphasis on developing young talent and has a proud history of nurturing and producing star players.
The Blues are known for their attacking style of play, characterized by fast-paced ball movement and skilled ball handling. They have a reputation for being a tough and physical team, with a strong focus on contested football.
Off the field, Carlton is actively involved in the community and has a strong commitment to social responsibility. The club runs various community programs and initiatives, promoting inclusivity, diversity, and positive change.
With a dedicated and passionate fan base, Carlton has a strong presence both on and off the field. The team's rich history, iconic colors, and commitment to success make them a beloved and respected club in the Australian rules football community.
