Southern Dingoes Australian Football Club

Masters Football in the Sutherland Shire

The Southern Dingoes Australian Football Club is a dedicated Masters football club based in Sydney’s Sutherland Shire. Playing from Gwawley Oval in Taren Point, the Dingoes provide opportunities for mature-age footballers to stay active, enjoy team sport and remain connected to Australian Rules Football.

The club promotes its program to players aged 35 and over, welcoming different levels of football experience. Its approach brings together fitness, friendship and positive wellbeing, with prospective players encouraged to contact the club about eligibility and joining arrangements.

Football at the Dingoes

Unlike clubs offering a range of open-age and youth grades, Southern Dingoes focuses exclusively on Masters football. The club fields two teams in the AFL Sydney Masters competition, providing different playing experiences within the same organisation. Dingoes 1 offers a more competitive approach, while Dingoes 2 caters for players seeking a more relaxed style of football.

Home Ground: Gwawley Oval

Southern Dingoes’ home ground is Gwawley Oval, near the corner of Box Road and Taren Point Road, Taren Point. The venue is part of the Gwawley Park South sporting precinct, where the Dingoes and Cronulla Junior Australian Football Club are resident AFL clubs.

Improved Facilities for Community Football

In July 2025, Sutherland Shire Council announced the completion of a $647,000 floodlighting upgrade at Gwawley Park South. The project replaced outdated lighting with energy-efficient LED floodlights, improving visibility and expanding opportunities for evening training and competition. The upgrade was supported by Sutherland Shire Council, the NSW Government’s Office of Sport and the AFL, benefiting the Dingoes, junior football and other sporting groups using the precinct.
