Founded in 1964, the club has multiple State League championships, and have been runner-up in both the Premier League and Federation Cup, The club currently competes in the State League 1 South Australia.

History

The Para Hills Community Soccer Club was formed by Robert Eldridge, John Eldridge, Chick Harris, John West, Andy Balter and Malcolm Owen on March 24 1964. The aim of the club being to foster and promote the game of soccer in the Northern Suburbs. The Eldridge brothers were Tottenham Hotspur supporters, so their kit early on was full white.[3] The club set the goal of playing first division soccer within 10 years. In 1965 the club entered a team in the Sunday Industrial League. On April 4 1965 the club played its first competitive senior game losing 3–1 with Chris Pawley scoring the first goal for the club.

The following year the club entered the South Australian Soccer Federation and once again the first game resulted in a defeat, 2-1 with the first goal in the Federation being scored by Dave Barry. In 1967 the club won its first silverware, being the 3rd Division Championship, and the Rowely Cup.[4]

In 1976, one year later than the club originally aimed for, Para Hills won promotion to South Australia's first division. Before the start of the 1977 season, the club left its base at Nelson Road to move to new facilities at The Paddocks. The club's first game in the first division was a 4-3 victory against Campbelltown Budapest on the new pitch, the winning goal scored by Harry McDonald. By the third week, the club had achieved its only two wins of the league season, narrowly avoiding relegation.[5]

In Para Hill's fourth year in the top division, they finished one point behind Premiers Adelaide Croatia Raiders, missing out on top spot after a 1–1 draw with them in the final round. A month later, they won the Coca Cola Challenge Cup after a 3–0 win over Adelaide Croatia Raiders, which was their first major silverware in the club's 17 year history.[6][7]
